T O P I C R E V I E Wspace1For a few years I have offered Gemini handle displays, with the choice of early or late cap design. Recently I have found a NASA photo of Gemini 8 that reveals that it also had the later T-handle design. I had thought that the change had started with Gemini 9. The complete photo shows the backup crew of Conrad and Gordon during pre-flight testing of Gemini 8.It has always been very difficult to find photos of Gemini 8 at the time of its flight, probably because of its emergency recovery. That makes this find especially rare.
