Gemini 6 and 7
Gemini 6 was to attempt the first docking, but it's target vehicle blew up upon launch. It was decided to rendezvous with Gemini 7 instead. Gemini 7 was to be the first endurance mission (2 weeks.) 7 actually launched a week before 6. They flew in formation ranging from 6" to 500' distance, then Gemini 6 (with Wally Schirra and Tom Stafford) reentered after a day, leaving 7 (Frank Borman, Jim Lovell) to compete its two weeks.
This 8x10 is signed by both spacecraft commanders, Wally Schirra (d. 2007) and Frank Borman
