1/8 scale model of the Gemini Spacecraft, 1962. Note the labeling of some of the panels, referencing "landing gear". The original intent for Gemini was to land on solid ground, using a Rogallo wing, instead of at sea via parachute, with the crew seated upright, controlling the forward motion of the vehicle.
