Astronaut Elliot M. See Jr. – 8″ x 10″ Official NASA Portrait Photo (UNSIGNED)
Own a rare piece of early NASA history with this official 8″ x 10″ NASA portrait photo of Astronaut Elliot M. See Jr., one of the original Gemini astronauts. Captured in 1966 as part of the Gemini IX crew preparations, this image shows See in his NASA flight suit, representing the professionalism and promise of America’s second group of astronauts.
See was selected as a NASA astronaut in 1962 and assigned as Command Pilot for Gemini IX, alongside Charles Bassett. Tragically, both men were killed in a T-38 jet crash while arriving for simulator training in St. Louis on February 28, 1966. Their loss deeply impacted the astronaut corps and led to a reshuffling of flight assignments.
This unsigned portrait is a meaningful collectible for fans of NASA’s formative years and a tribute to an astronaut whose career was cut short but whose legacy remains part of the Gemini program’s story.
