Titan II: Early Footage from Space

The video tutorial covers a historic flight down the South Atlantic target range, highlighting the booster that will carry the Gemini space vehicle. A significant milestone is the camera mounted on the second stage of the booster, designed to capture close-ups as the Titan approaches space. The video details the stages of the booster, including the separation of the first stage and the ignition of the second stage, which propels the spacecraft at 17,000 miles per hour. The curvature of the Earth becomes visible, marking a significant moment in space exploration.

How does the second stage of the Titan rocket behave after the first stage shuts down?
