Gemini Space Capsule

I'm taking a trip back in time with the Gemini capsule and service modules from the 1960s program that laid the groundwork for everything we needed to know for the Apollo program. I discovered a basic model online, specifically on the Trimble site (http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=13ddfafa0b41d8f77550eb58de5306fc&prevstart=48), which I imported into Sketchup. While it's not detailed enough for printing, this model stands out because it's actually round and smooth, unlike many other models that have a faceted appearance. I might revisit it later to add some raised lines that indicate the segments, hatches, panels, and attitude jets. For now, though, it makes a great conversation piece!
