Title: Astronaut Edwin Aldrin during underwater zero-gravity training
Description:
Astronaut Edwin Aldrin, pilot for the Gemini 12 space flight, practices 
egress procedures from mockup of his spacecraft during underwater 
zero-gravity training. He holds a telescoping hand rail in his left hand 
which he will use to move from the spacecraft to the Agena Target Docking 
vehicle (54937); Aldrin prepares to take a "rest position" during
underwater  zero-gravity training. His feet are secured to a mockup of the
adapter  section of the spacecraft by a special foot plate (54938); Aldrin
practices  work tasks during underwater zero-gravity training. He is
placing his feet  into special foot plate in adapter section of the
spacecraft (54939).
