Northern Mexico (Sonora, Baja California just above the Gulf of California) is in the foreground of this sequence looking northwest along the orbital track, with California and Arizona in the background. The Imperial Valley in the center, with the Salton Sea above under the clouds. The light-brown circular area at the lower right is the Sonoran Desert.

002:59:41 Young: Man, just pitch over and I’ll take a picture.
002:59:41 Young: Can you pitch it down and toward the States, Gus? [...]
003:00:03 Young: Can you come across a ground tracking looking down like that, Gus? (Pilot demonstrating with hands on Orbital Path Display).
003:00:06 Grissom: Sideways?
003:00:07 Young: Yes, sideways, and pitch down 90. Will this hurt alinement? -- because I can see some targets up north. [...]
003:00:57 Young: Here, there is a target down there.
003:00:59 Grissom: Where?
003:01:02 Young: You’ve got to pitch the nose down. Right by the nose.
003:01:07 Grissom: That green spot? (The Imperial Valley)
003:01:08 Young: No, down -- like straight down.
003:01:11 Grissom: I don’t know what you see.
003:01:12 Young: There’s all kinds of stuff. See that town down there?
003:01:17 Grissom: Where?
003:01:18 Young: Right around here on the right.
003:01:20 Grissom: I can’t see over there, John. I’ll roll back to the right so we can both see. Ah yeah, there is one right down below here. Let’s see if I can get it. [...]
003:02:36 Grissom: Got the pictures?
003:02:37 Young: Yes.
003:02:38 Grissom: That is right up from the tip of the Gulf of California, isn’t it?
003:02:39 Young:Yes.
003:02:41 Grissom: I don’t see the Salton Sea.

Astronauts John Young (left) and Gus Grissom are shown during their first inspection of the Molly Brown spacecraft following their 3-orbit and 4-hour and 53-minute flight.

“Splashdown occurred in the Atlantic in the vicinity of Grand Turk Island at 4:52:31 GET (2:16:31 p.m. EST), 111 km short of the target point. Both astronauts became seasick, removed their suits, and left the spacecraft at about 3:00 p.m. EST. They were picked up by helicopter and taken to the recovery ship U.S.S. Intrepid at 3:28 p.m. EST, where they were found to be in good condition. The Gemini capsule was recovered at 5:03 p.m. EST” (https://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/spacecraft/display.action?id=1965-024A).
