Gemini was a spacecraft to test out systems for the moon trip. -
Project Gemini
Gemini had four main goals: to test an astronaut's ability to fly long-duration missions (up to two weeks in space); to understand how spacecraft could rendezvous and dock in orbit around the Earth and the moon; to perfect re-entry and landing methods; and to further understand the effects of longer space flights on astronauts.

The Launch of Skylab: America's first space station
Skylab was America's first space station. It was launched into orbit May 14, 1973. It was crewed by 3 different sets of 3 astronauts. Skylab served as a solar observatory, a microgravity lab, a medical lab and an earth observing facility. Many new technologies had to be developed for the extended time that the astronauts lived in Skylab. The last 3 crew members remained on board for 84 days. Skylab reentered the Earth's atmosphere on July 11, 1979.
