Project Gemini ended on November 11, 1966 with the successful reentry and splashdown of Gemini 12.
Neil Armstrong is best known for being the commander of NASA's Apollo 11 mission in 1969, where he became the first person to walk on the moon. Prior to Apollo 11, he also flew on the Gemini 8 mission in 1966, where he performed the first successful docking of two spacecraft in orbit.
Gemini 8 was a manned spaceflight mission in 1966 that achieved the first successful docking of two spacecraft in orbit. However, the mission encountered a critical failure when the spacecraft began tumbling uncontrollably, forcing an emergency abort and early re-entry. The crew, Neil Armstrong and David Scott, safely returned to Earth, and the mission was considered a partial success despite the issues.
NASA launched the Gemini missions between 1964 and 1966. Gemini was a series of 10 manned spaceflights that paved the way for the Apollo moon missions.
The Gemini mission that resulted in the death of astronauts was Gemini 9A. The prime crew for this mission, Elliot See and Charles Bassett, died in a plane crash en route to inspect their spacecraft. Their backup crew, Thomas Stafford and Eugene Cernan, took over the mission.

Astronaut James Lovell went with Buzz Aldrin on the Gemini 12 spacecraft.
Neil Armstrong's first space flight was aboard Gemini 8 on March 16, 1966. It was a pivotal mission in the Gemini program where Armstrong made history by performing the first successful docking of two spacecraft in orbit.
Here to the question is not at all clear . Which mission are you asking about. The Mercury, the Gemini or the Apollo mission, or are you asking of the Skylab mission or the Space Shuttle mission?
There were multiple Gemini missions into space because there was a lot of work and research that needed to be done.
The mission was successful and he landed safely home
