Reference: Gemini-10 (the infamous "whifferdill") Reference information: The series of rendezvous and docking operations in 1966 is thendiscussed. Hacker describes the Gemin-8 docking with the Agena, thenthe complex planning for Gemini-9 and the way it actually turned out,then the same process for Gemini-10. A more detailed discussion of therendezvous problems on Gemini-10 (the infamous "whifferdill") ispresented based on an astronaut's memoirs and on post-flight studies ------ The astronauts trained for this possibility aboard the TDS by making a helix-shaped approach to the target, known as a whifferdill in the tradition of pilots at air shows, to correct the error that had placed it off to the Agena’s side. - https://oaktrust.library.tamu.edu/bitstream/handle/1969.1/16... - page 137 ------ |
