The Gemini missions were designed to bridge the gap between the small Mercury mission and the much larger and more demanding Apollo moon missions.
Gemini developed orbital rendezvous, navigation, guidance and docking techniques alongside testing various parts and components to be fitted to the future Apollo spacecraft. Gemini 12 was the last Gemini flight in 1966.

Gemini, and there were 12 missions.

The Gemini Project lasted Between 1962 and 1966 and developed key techniques and equipment later used on the Apollo missions. Over the years 1965 and 1966, the Gemini Project sent a total of 16 Astronauts on 10 different missions into orbit.
No missions in the Gemini program landed on the moon. Only missions 11, 12, 14, 15, 16 & 17 in the Apollo program landed on the moon.

Gemini was originally considered an extension of the Mercury missions, and was originally just designated Mercury Mark II. However, the purpose of the Gemini and follow on Apollo missions was to gain experience in space and test the technologies that would take us to the moon and back, as mandated by President John F. Kennedy.

Mercury can only hold one person but Gemini can carry two

There were multiple Gemini missions into space because there was a lot of work and research that needed to be done.
Apollo 11 and Gemini 8. He helped the mission Gemini 11, but I don't think he went on it.
In the two year period 1784 to 1786 there were none. In any arbitrarily chosen two year period since the brginning of the universe, the chance of Gemini missions on Earth is vanishingly small. For all practical purposes it is zero. However, it is possible that there were Gemini missions on other inhabited planets. If the universe is infinite, it is a mathematical certainty that there are always Gemini missions occurring somewhere, and always people asking how many of them there were, and an infinity of people providing facetious answers.
