Nasa. December 17, 1965. Return to sea of the Gemini 6 mission capsule. Pioneering astronauts Thomas Stafford and Walter Shirra extract themselves from the Gemini capsule, assisted by frogmen who have just parachuted from a helicopter into the Pacific Ocean. In this rare photograph, the space capsule is clearly visible, and its small size stands out against that of the men in this exceptional photographic composition.
