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.

The sunset, the lower end across the horizon, 93:10:57.5; the upper end, 93:11:15.5. Did you get that? 95:11:48 CC Roger. Copy. 95:11:50 C Sunrise, the upper end across the horizon, 93:42:34.5; the lower end, 93:43:22.0. 95:12:05 CC Roger. Copy. 95:12:07 C Thank you. 95:12:08 CC Roger. Gemini. 95:22:48 P A comment here at 95:22: I've been wrestling with a beef and gravy package for at least the last 15 minutes, Serial Number SC596, and it just doesn't come out. You put water in one end and it doesn't get to the dry material on the other end. No matter what you do, you can't mix it and then you try to force it out of the eating end, and it takes an awful long time. ## HAWAII 95:28:37 CC Gemini VII, Hawaii CAP COM. If you read, place your T/M Control T/M switch to REAL-TIME and ACQ-AID, and your adapter C-Band to CONTINUOUS. 95:29:03 P Tananarive, Gemini VII. ## CONFIDENTIAL
