George Bailey: What is it you want, Mary? What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey. That's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon, Mary.
Mary: I'll take it. Then what?
George Bailey: Well, then you can swallow it, and it'll all dissolve, see... and the moonbeams would shoot out of your fingers and your toes and the ends of your hair... am I talking too much?

Project Gemini was the second human spaceflight program of NASA
Crew: Virgil I. "Gus" Grissom, Command Pilot
John W. Young, Pilot
Back-up Crew: Schirra, Stafford
On March 23, 1965, the spacecraft, nicknamed Molly Brown, performed the seventh manned US spaceflight, and the 17th manned spaceflight overall (including X-15 flights over 100 kilometers).
It was also the final manned flight controlled from Cape Canaveral, Florida before mission control functions were shifted to the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston, Texas.
Project Gemini was conducted between projects Mercury and Apollo, with ten manned flights occurring in 1965 and 1966
Gemini 3 was the first manned mission in NASA's Gemini program, the second American manned space program
Grissom was at the time the first person to fly in space twice. Sadly, Project Gemini would be his last flight. He was killed in the tragic Apollo 1 fire on January 27, 1967.
The Gemini 3 capsule was unofficially dubbed Molly Brown in reference to the Unsinkable Molly Brown of Titanic fame.
Grissom's capsule sank and was lost during his first space flight, Mercury MR-4, thus precipitating this Molly Brown nickname.
Considering napkins for your party, for your home?
Here's another interesting historical tidbit regarding the Project Gemini Mission:
A corned beef sandwich had been smuggled on board the spacecraft. Grissom reportedly only took a few bites for fear of the potential safety risk that would be caused by any crumbs floating around the cabin.
A sandwich was not the normal type of space food prepared for the astronauts!

The Right Stuff (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Gus Grissom is depicted in different films and TV shows, but perhaps the best is The Right Stuff from 1983. You can rent the movie and stream it or catch it on cable now and then. It's good to know our history.
