@ChuckNorrisKratosLOL eh, von Braun ist innocent. He aimed for the stars, but he accidentally hit london XD
But seriously, a lot of great people have indirectly killed people after or in order to achieve their dreams. Just ask Harrison Ford or George Washington Carver...
Could you tell me what the song is at 0:57 or in what movie it has been in? I have heard it somewhere else and I'd love to get the song if anyone knows what it is.
and theres not only Werner von Braun, also there is Einstein. Without him the us never would have a atomoic bomb (which were used twice to murder hundread thousands japanese civilians)
You arent the good guys, thats what your government is telling you. Most people on the world you are the bad guys, always going to war.
@GunBoTT You are right the USA has done many things that are Wrong,but that does not change the history of Wernher von Braun and his paperclip group.Why not study Dr.WVB and his work as a SS rocket builder following Hitler.Where do you think they got the workers to man the factories during the war?I hope you have a nice day.Go seek the truth.
Instead of bitching on someone who really did something of his life,why don't you look to Iraq and the U.S. troops killing thousands of civilians "by error" with the so called american technology ?
As far as i know,the main reason of that useless war was "weapons of mass destruction",did we found anything ?NO.
Then after that they pulled out that terrorist excuse,which they FUND themselves,and now,everyone thinks this war is for a good reason because of CNN...
I hate war.When civilians die we all loose.What Von Braun did was by plan not by error.Thousands of Jews were used as slaves .Many were murdered or worked to death building his rockets that were used to kill many citizens in England.What Von B.did in Huntsville Al.does not wash away the blood of the poor Jews who lost their lives.May we have peace on earth not war.
Pfft.peace,did you know who funded hitler ?It was the same people who funded the soviets and the allies in the second world war...WW1-WW2 were only designed for profit,if the rockefellers and their click didn't funded hitler,no jews would have died,so basically,hitler is not the problem,same for von braun.
Anyways,von braun was a scientist,not a soldier,he only designed the plans.Nothing more,nothing less.
First let me say that Americans do not always agree with the actions of their country.The fact is that the United States has done many wrong things.I wish there was no war or atomic bombs.There are many Americans who hate war.Japan attack us,The Axis countries started WWII.We did not want that war and FDR tried to keep us out of it.Many feel that the A.bomb saved lives that would have been lost if we had invaded Japan.I hope the bomb is never used again.
What was Werner von Braun doing to the jews? As far as i know he was a Rocket scientist, no SS Guard in Ausschwitz.
First get your shit together my friend, not every german was a murdering monster like americans always believe. Better take a look into the mirror, Afganistan, iraq..yesterday it was the germans, today its the us invading other countrys for whatever reason.
Von Braun and the rest of the paper clip group should have been tried for war crimes.We now know that these nazis brought death and suffering on many Jews as they built their rockets.May history dam these men from the place of honor that they enjoyed in Huntsville Al.They should be remembered as part of the SS not the U.S.
But USA as others , owes much to Russia = Tsiolkowsky is the only and common father for all that flys chemical.. US Navy tried to do it without Germans , but they simply were unable to do it . If not so, they would never have given Wernher the job .
All the Navy stubborn crash serie is a funny film , and must have cost very hot .
(Part 1 / 2) ... The Warnher Von Braun Crimes. Aiding and abetting in the murder of innocent men, women and children in Britain by NAZI V1 and V2 rockets because it certainly wasn't a case of soldiers fighting soldiers. In human terms the "V" weapons caused the deaths of 8,938 British civilians (6,184 by V1's and 2,754 by V2's) while 24,504 more people were seriously injured, (17,981 by V1's and 6,523 by V2's).
( Part 2 / 2) ... In addition 2,917 British servicemen were killed by "V" weapons and 1,939 seriously injured. This NAZI didn't give a crap about where the rockets he worked on landed and how many innocent men, women and children were going to be killed or maimed for life. All he cared about was his career. My God, are people getting so apethetic that they just believe what they choose to believe regardless of history's stated facts? Just Incredible !!!
WOW !!! Judging by the amount of "NAZI" sympathizers out there, there's no wonder why the United States is on the verge of total takeover. You worshipers should read your history books for a change instead of just sucking up "Doctored History on T.V". This bastard was a goddamn NAZI S.S. OFFICER who never stood trial for his crimes. How many countless innocent men, women, and children were killed and maimed across Britain because of his "V" rockets. How in God's name can you forget his past?
NASA Announces Request For Information On Von Braun Collection : On the eve of the 40th anniversary of the historic first moon landing, NASA is seeking ideas from the public, academia, and industry about how to analyze and catalog notes from spaceflight pioneer Wernher von Braun into an electronic, searchable database or other system.
heres an interesting idea. if Von Braun had moved earlier to Britan and built them something akin to the V2.....
You have to wonder how both Von Braun and his creations would be described by contemporary historians assuming that all else stays the same (i.e. the allies still win WWII).....
Von Braun was a genius, and yes, a "nazi war criminal". BUT, the concept of "war criminal" itself becomes weak when you hear Anglosaxons boast about their space program.
The Anglo-Americans hanged "war criminals" when they were useless. But "useful" war criminals were very welcome to bring in their brains.
So the concept of "war criminal" itself is rather hypocritical. As long as an individual is useful and wins wars and money for them, the Yankees don't care about his past or his crimes.
Wernher wasn´t probably aware of the holocaust or slave labour and if he knew about those things, he couldn´t have stopped them because the genocide and slavery were ordered by the highest authority and I dont think that SS-major outranks Hitler.
He was so passionate about he´s work and german government provided pretty much unlimited resources.
Genious like von Braun couldn´t possibly think that the only solution to "jew problem" is by killing them all.
No, he was aware of it all, he USED Allied prisoners to build his V2 rockets, plus he was in charge of the whole rocket program. I'm not saying he was horrible, but he knew it was happening and tried, in no way, to stop it.
Werner von braun was a nazi war criminal,he may have been a genius,a rocket scientist to but lets not forget that thousands of slave labourers were worked to death in his factories and projects.He knew what was comeing and could have left germany like many other scientist did,he chose to stay.He should have been hung for his crimes against humanity.People say he had no choice,bullshit,he has several years to make his choice before it was to late.On his statue it should also tell of his warcrimes
If you're a rocket scientist in nazi germany, and Hitler tells you to build him rockets........You'd better not say no or you and your wife and kids would surely be executed by the SS or the Gestapo.
The SPACE RACE has been believed (by Americans) to be a race between The United States and the Soviet Union. The truth is, it was a race between German scientists; those captured by the Russians and those captured by the Americans after World War II.
Do you know what happened to Von braun's children? I was courious to know if they followed to any degree in their fathers foot steps. best regards to you.
If more Germans headed west, it's because they knew they'd be treated better there. The Soviet Union used less of them because they had less. It wasn't for lack of want.
I agree. Besides, germans fight down all socialists, as biggest threat and they know, that russians don't forget so easly. But my point was - quarter of million nazist were foundation for most important sections of US gov! Now, I'm from Poland, and this it makes my flesh creep....
226,000 NAZIS TO USA! what is that ssmoku 80 guy talking about! your right though the the command module and lunar module were made by americans, so was some of the saturn v rocket was on brauhn's brainchild but he was an american citizen at the time, not american born and raised, but a us citizen none the less, von brauhn also advanced his work through american robert goddard who launced the first modern rocket in 1926, but von brauhn ws a genuis, so was Tom Kelly(lunar module)
@jameslewisx between Wernher and Korolev (who wasn't German, but Russian). The race was between these two geniuses. Once Korolev passed away, Soviets had no replacement for him, hence the race was lost. Von Braun was a genius but he was luckier to live longer than his Russian opponent.
@jameslewisx Yea its true but u must remember that in building rockets participated russian and americans engineers also.(For example Sergei Korolev is russian which had huge influence in building rockets for russians ) Origin of construction of rockets is from Germans after World War II americans and russians were exporting everything including technology, gold etc. from german But russians were abducting german scientists whereas americans didnt do this. If i said something wrong correct me
Von Braun looks like Michael Schumacher.
