The Manned Orbital Laboratory (MOL) is a successor to the X-20 Dyna-Soar space plane project intended to be used for reconnaissance purposes. MOL evolved into a single-use laboratory, with crews enduring 40-day missions before returning in a Gemini B spacecraft.

The Gemini B is externally similar to the Gemini spacecraft but with a truncated service module and no reaction control thrusters or solar panels fitted. Both MOL and Gemini B crew recovery capsule are launched together on a Titan IIIM, featuring an extended fuel tank and UA1207 SRBs.
