I want this project to have a name. It helps me keep track of it in my head. Keeping with the gemini protocol tradition of naming stuff after Gemini mission things or space things, I'd like it to be related to the Gemini missions. Something about the launch vehicle (because it gets you to Gemini) or command/control of the spacecraft.
There are a couple I'd love to use that are already taken:
But there are plenty more interesting ones that I like that as far as I know aren't taken:
I said on the fediverse that I was leaning towards "LR87" but since then I've been having trouble remembering the number, so I think that's out. I quite like "OAMS" since this device is for maneuvering you around geminispace. Let's go with Orbital Attitude and Maneuvering System.
Ok that's the hard part over! Now I just need to make the thing.
