These are three utility cords for use by a Gemini astronaut performing an EVA. They have electrical plug-ins on both ends. Astronauts successfully performed EVAs during the Gemini IV, VIII, IX-A, X, XI, and XII missions. These cords are flight-ready hardware and may have been used by Michael Collins during his EVA during the Gemini X mission. Their manufacturer is unknown. NASA transferred them to NASM in 1968.
