Lovell Jr. (left), Gemini-7 pilot, and Frank Borman (right), command pilot, slice into a huge cake which was part of their warm welcome after arriving aboard the aircraft carrier USS Wasp. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Gemini-7 spacecraft splashed down in the Western Atlantic recovery area at 9:05 a.m. (EST), Dec. 18, 1965, to conclude a highly successful 14-day mission in space.
