40 years ago today
Today in Science History:
Astronaut Gordon Cooper in orbit 100 miles above the Earth aboard Gemini 5 held a conversation with aquanaut M. Scott Carpenter in Sealab II which was 205 feet below the surface of the Pacific Ocean. It was was first time an astronaut in space spoke with an aquanaut.
Makes me wonder just how many times did astronauts have occassion to speak with aquanauts?
