Prior to the Gemini XII mission, other astronauts from previous missions of the <a href="/wiki/Project_Gemini" title="Project Gemini">Gemini Program</a> had attempted <a href="/wiki/Extravehicular_activity" title="Extravehicular activity">EVAs</a>. However, their successes were limited due to a lack of proper restraints and insufficient techniques.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In preparation for Gemini XII new, improved restraints were added to the outside of the capsule, and a new technique—underwater training—was introduced, which would become a staple of future space-walk simulation. The main purpose of the Gemini XII mission was to find and test new ways to work outside of a spacecraft safely and effectively.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Aldrin's two-hour, 20-minute tethered space-walk, during which he photographed star fields, retrieved a micrometeorite collector and did other chores, at last demonstrated the feasibility of <a href="/wiki/Extravehicular_activity" title="Extravehicular activity">extravehicular activity</a>. Two more stand-up <a href="/wiki/Extravehicular_activity" title="Extravehicular activity">EVAs</a> also went smoothly, as did the by-now routine rendezvous and docking with an Agena which was done "manually" using the onboard computer and charts when a rendezvous radar failed. The climb to a higher orbit, however, was canceled because of a problem with the <a href="/wiki/Agena_target_vehicle" title="Agena target vehicle">Agena</a> booster. </p><p>During orbital injection, the GATV engine experienced a drop in turbopump speed lasting about 2.5 seconds. After this, pump performance returned to normal. Telemetry data indicated erratic pump speeds, but engine performance did not reflect this. The anomaly was later found as a brief 30 psi drop in the thrust chamber of the rocket. The mission had planned for an orbital maneuver into a higher orbit but the drop in pressure raised some concerns.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Ground controllers decided not to risk the planned orbital boost maneuver since the exact reason for the pump slowdown was unclear. Following Gemini 12's reentry and during the GATV's 63rd orbit, they attempted to fire the propulsion system, but a stuck fuel valve prevented engine start from occurring. </p><p>It was suspected that a turbopump bearing failure caused the anomalous conditions during orbital injection, followed by heating and melting of pump components. The inability of ground controllers to start the engine during the 63rd orbit was possibly due to melted or loose debris blocking the fuel valve and preventing its operation. The telemetry data falsely reporting erratic pump speed was concluded to be debris being knocked around and affecting the data probes. </p><p>The 1994 book and documentary <i><a href="/wiki/Moon_Shot" title="Moon Shot">Moon Shot</a></i>, as well as the 2008 documentary <i><a href="/wiki/When_We_Left_Earth:_The_NASA_Missions" title="When We Left Earth: The NASA Missions">When We Left Earth: The NASA Missions</a></i>, credits the <a href="/wiki/Extra-vehicular_activity" class="mw-redirect" title="Extra-vehicular activity">spacewalk</a> innovations, including the <a href="/wiki/Neutral_buoyancy_simulation_as_a_training_aid" title="Neutral buoyancy simulation as a training aid">underwater training</a>, to Aldrin himself.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, the 2016 article "Inventing Underwater Training for Walking in Space," by Michael Neufeld reveals that neutral buoyancy experimentation began at aerospace companies and at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia a few years before the first Gemini mission had even flown.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Gemini 12 was designed to perform rendezvous and docking with the Agena target vehicle, to conduct three <a href="/wiki/Extra-vehicular_activity" class="mw-redirect" title="Extra-vehicular activity">extra-vehicular activity (EVA)</a> operations, to conduct a tethered stationkeeping exercise, to perform docked maneuvers using the Agena propulsion system to change orbit, and demonstrate an automatic reentry. </p> <table class="wikitable plainrowheaders"> <tbody><tr> <th scope="col">Gemini 12 </th> <th scope="col">Agena info </th></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Agena </th> <td>GATV-5001A </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">NSSDC ID: </th> <td>1966-103A </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Mass </th> <td>3,175 kilograms (7,000 lb) </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Launch site </th> <td>LC-14 </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Launch date </th> <td>November 11, 1966 </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Launch time </th> <td>19:07:59 UTC </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">1st perigee </th> <td>294.7 kilometres (183.1 mi) </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">1st apogee </th> <td>303.2 kilometres (188.4 mi) </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Period </th> <td>90.56 m </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Inclination </th> <td>28.86 </td></tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Reentered </th> <td>November 15, 1966 </td></tr></tbody></table> <p>When Gemini 12 was being planned, one of the possibilities raised was the potential for the flight to be run in conjunction with the <a href="/wiki/Apollo_1" title="Apollo 1">first Apollo mission</a>, which had been tentatively scheduled for the last quarter of 1966.
