Difference between Agena target vehicle and Project Gemini

Agena target vehicle vs. Project Gemini

The Agena Target Vehicle (ATV), also known as Gemini-Agena Target Vehicle (GATV) was an unmanned spacecraft used by NASA during its Gemini program to develop and practice orbital space rendezvous and docking techniques, and to perform large orbital changes, in preparation for the Apollo program lunar missions. Project Gemini was NASA's second human spaceflight program.
