I was curious as to the fate of the two Gemini astronaut simulators installed at the Manned Spacecraft Center, Houston and at the old Mercury Control Center (MCC) at the Cape in Florida. I know the MCC was backup to the new Mission Operations Control Room (MOCR) in Houston for the duration of Gemini after its use for Gemini 3 only, then was razed in the late 90s and most of its contents recreated at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. Below is a photo of John Young and Gus Grissom with the one at the Cape. There was also a big control panel for instructors. | |
