Gemini IV |
S65-34635 (3 June 1965) --- Astronaut Edward H. White II, pilot on the
Gemini-Titan 4 spaceflight,
is shown during his egress from the spacecraft. His face is covered by a shaded
visor to protect him
from the unfiltered rays of the sun. White became the first American astronaut
to walk in space.
He remained outside the spacecraft for 21 minutes during the third revolution
of the Gemini-4 mission.
He wears a specially designed spacesuit for the extravehicular activity (EVA).
In his right hand,
he carries a Hand-Held Self-Maneuvering Unit (HHSMU) with which he controlled
his movements while in space. He was attached to the spacecraft by a 25-feet
umbilical line and a
23-feet tether line, both wrapped together with gold tape to form one cord.
He wears an emergency oxygen
supply chest pack. Astronaut James A. McDivitt is command pilot for the Gemini-4
mission.
