A Titan booster launched the Gemini 8 spacecraft on March 16, 1966, from launch complex 19 Cape Kennedy, Florida. The flight crew for the planned 3 day mission, astronauts Neil A. Armstrong and David R. Scott, achieved the first rendezvous and docking to Atlas/Agena in Earth orbit.  But the mission was terminated early due to a malfunctioning thruster on the Gemini spacecraft.
