It was no easy jump from manned missions in low-Earth orbit to a successful moon landing, and the ten-flight, twenty-month celestial story of the Gemini program is an extraordinary one. There was unavoidable darkness in the program\u003cb\u003e--\u003c\/b\u003ethe deaths and near-deaths that defined it, and the blood feud with the Soviet Union that animated it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e But there were undeniable and previously inconceivable successes. With a war raging in Vietnam and lawmakers calling for cuts to NASA's budget, the success of the Gemini program--or the space program in general--was never guaranteed. Yet against all odds, the remarkable scientists and astronauts behind the project persevered, and their efforts paid off. Later, with the knowledge gained from the Gemini flights, NASA would launch the legendary Apollo program. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Told with Jeffrey Kluger's signature cinematic storytelling and in-depth research and interviews, \u003ci\u003eGemini \u003c\/i\u003eis an edge-of-your-seat narrative chronicling the history of the least appreciated--and most groundbreaking--space program in American history.
