definition: Spacecraft Brief Description Gemini 8 was the sixth manned earth-orbiting spacecraft of the Gemini series. The primary mission objectives were to perform rendezvous and four docking tests with the Agena target vehicle and to execute an extravehicular activity (EVA) experiment. Ten technological, medical, and scientific experiments were carried on board. Of the six scientific experiments only the Agena micrometeorite collection was successful. the others -- (1) zodiacal light photography, (2) frog egg growth, (3) synoptic terrain photography, (4) nuclear emulsions, and (5) spectrophotography of clouds -- were incomplete, owing to a large loss of fuel and early termination of the mission. The EVA docking and other maneuvers were canceled. The spacecraft reentered the earth's atmosphere after 6.5 orbits and landed in the pacific ocean on March 17, 1966.
