On this edition of @mannedspace1187 we remember the launch of astronauts Gordon Cooper and Pete Conrad aboard Gemini V. In addition to the mission being the first to be powered by fuel cells instead of batteries, Gemini V also set a space endurance record at the time of eight days - the same number of days needed to travel to and from the moon.
