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.

## CONFIDENTIAL 115:04:13 CC Frank, would you check the Suit Temperature valve for FULL-COLD position? Our data show that it is not at that position. 115:04:22 C Say again, please. 115:04:23 CC Would you check the Suit Temperature valve position? Our data do not show FULL-COLD. 115:04:32 C It would take three men and a boy to move it and I've got it as tight as we can get it. 115:04:37 CC Roger. 115:04:49 CC Frank, how about trying the Cabin Temperature valve a little cooler? 115:04:54 C That will cut off some of the coolant loop's flow through the suit loop and should make us hotter. 115:05:00 CC Why don't you give it a try? 115:05:04 C All right. 115:05:08 CC Gemini VII, this is Surgeon. Jim, we're still not getting a valid blood pressure here. We're not seeing any trace of it. Let's don't try and repeat it here, but I wish you would check. Check in your microphone and the cuff there before you do any changing with the - with the suit configuration. And also, did you have to do anything to those sensors other than just press on that external sensor yesterday? 115:05:32 P Negative. I did not. The cuff's still way up. I could check it very easily here. 115:05:40 CC All right. Fine. 115:05:43 CC Frank, can you tell me what you had for sleep last night? We don't have that report yet. Could I get your sleep and the quality of it, also? 115:05:52 C We slept about 6 to 7 hours last night. I think Jim slept sounder than I did. I was warm most of the evening. ## CONFIDENTIAL
