Description

Scarce flown checklist page from Project Gemini’s final flight

Flown checklist page carried on board Gemini 12, labeled “Docked SPS Translation @ Cardinal Heading,” 5 x 8, removed from the ‘Procedures S/N 122’ flight-log flown on the mission. The page deals with SPS [Secondary Propulsion System] configuration procedures while docked with the Agena target vehicle. In fine condition, with a small taped tear to the lower left, evidently repaired pre-flight, as the tab is affixed over the tape. Because of the very cramped crew compartment and tight weight restrictions aboard the small 2-man craft, flown artifacts from Gemini missions are rarer than even those from Apollo flights; this Gemini 12 checklist page is believed to be one of the first such mission used items ever to be made available from this important and final flight of the Gemini series. Accompanied by a data CD with thorough documentation evidencing the chain-of-ownership of the page as part of the complete S/N 122 Procedures flight-log, as well as scans of every page of the manual.
