This is Volume I of III of the Gemini VII voice communications transcript, covering pages 1 to 337 and marked Confidential. It records air-to-ground, ground-to-air and on-board exchanges beginning at lift-off. Early passages cover staging, orbit insertion and stationkeeping with the booster, which the crew reports is venting heavily, and they photograph it. Later passages near 116 hours hold the crew's detailed descriptions of airglow, stars and a sunrise seen from orbit.

I had it on this morning for just a while and then they told me to turn it off over Australia, or somewhere. 92:47:16 CC Roger. 92:47:20 CC Well, the people in the back room are not quite ready to do the hydrogen one, but I'm pretty certain you could. 92:47:35 CC How you making out after 4 days? 92:47:37 P We're doing pretty good, Chris. It's amazing. The spacecraft seems to be getting bigger and bigger. Either we're losing weight or we're getting used to it. I don't know which. 92:47:45 CC Very good. 92:47:47 CC Gemini VII, the Surgeon would like to make a comment to you - to - to you - about this external lead again. 92:47:54 CC Jim, would you check that external lead pretty carefully if you're going to put on that other garment? It looks like it probably was loose. I don't know if - it has been going somewhat erratic still. It looks pretty good most of the ## CONFIDENTIAL
