Gemini 8 was a manned spaceflight mission in 1966 that achieved the first successful docking of two spacecraft in orbit. However, the mission encountered a critical failure when the spacecraft began tumbling uncontrollably, forcing an emergency abort and early re-entry. The crew, Neil Armstrong and David Scott, safely returned to Earth, and the mission was considered a partial success despite the issues.
