拍品专文

Astronaut Edward H. White II, pilot for the Gemini-Titan 4 space flight, floats in the zero gravity of space outside the Gemini-4 spacecraft. Behind him is the brilliant blue of the earth and its white cloud cover. White wears a specially designed space suit, and the visor of his helmet is gold plated to protect him against the unfiltered rays of the sun. He also wears an emergency oxygen pack. He is secured to the spacecraft by a 25-ft. umbilical line and a 23-ft. tether line, both wrapped in gold tape to form one cord. In his left hand he carries a Hand-Held Self-Maneuvering Unit (HHSMU) with which he controls his movements in space. Astronaut James A. McDivitt, command pilot for the mission, remained inside the spacecraft.

From NASA caption.
