Frank Borman (Gemini 7 Commander, S/C)

1965-12-01 / Low Earth Orbit / unresolved

At 4 hours 24 minutes into the Gemini 7 flight in December 1965, Commander Frank Borman reported "a bogey at ten o'clock high" to Houston, confirmed it as "an actual sighting," and described hundreds of small particles passing to the left at three to four miles, traveling at 90 degrees to the vehicle's path and going into polar orbit. Pilot James Lovell separately identified the Titan II booster at the two o'clock position as a brilliant, slowly tumbling body with trillions of particles on it.
