STP151 - The Lost Gemini Missions - with Michael Mackowski

<p>The Gemini program was such a success that a number of alternative missions were proposed for the space craft. Today we’re guided through some of these by Michael Mackowski who is a bit of a Gemini expert having previously worked for the designer and builder of the Gemini spacecraft, McDonnell Douglas. We last spoke to Mike on episode 76 when we found out about his model spacecraft. Having created models for many of the lost Gemini missions, Mike is the perfect person to talk to about these.</p><br><p>Mike Mackowski:</p><p>The Lost Gemini Missions: <a href="https://lostgeminimissions.wordpress.com/lunar-gemini/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lostgeminimissions.wordpress.com/lunar-gemini/</a>&nbsp;</p><br><p>Books, reference material, merchandise, photos etc;</p><p><a href="https://www.spaceinminiature.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.spaceinminiature.com/</a></p><p>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/spaceinminiature" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/spaceinminiature</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/mjmackowski" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/mjmackowski</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Youtube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/spacecitymike" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/user/spacecitymike</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mjmackowski" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/mjmackowski</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Mike’s Space Advocacy Book: <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Adventures-Space-Advocacy-Personal-Activism-ebook/dp/B00WDMVWDW" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Adventures-Space-Advocacy-Personal-Activism-ebook/dp/B00WDMVWDW</a>&nbsp;</p><br><p>Full show notes: <a href="https://spaceandthingspodcast.com/podcast/stp151-the-lost-gemini-missions-with-michael-mackowski" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://spaceandthingspodcast.com/podcast/stp151-the-lo
