This film contains rare archive footage of Robert Goddard, a rocket pioneer of the 1920's and '30's who was the first to use liquid propellant. This excerpt is from the "'Moonwalk Series: Episode 1: The Day Before," a four part documentary series made in the 1970's about the Apollo 11 mission.
One of the reasons Germany was able to move so fare ahead technologically is because Goddard avoided sharing details of his work with other scientists. He preferred to work alone. Frank Malina, who was then studying rocketry at the California Institute of Technology, visited Goddard in August of 1936. Goddard refused to discuss any of his research, other than that which had already been published in Liquid-Propellant Rocket Development.
