"Opportunity to own a very rare piece of the pioneer of our space program. "
He and his team of German Scientists had almost singlehandedly brought rocketry from small rocket born explosives to be fired at a target and hopefully start a fire to the level of their famed V-1 & V-2 which could carry a payload of heavy explosives and could to a degree be directed to a specific target. This technology was the very bedrock of America’s space program… the Redstone rocket (that carried the first few Mercury capsules aloft) , to the Atlas that carried the other Mercury capsules & some of the Gemini capsules, to the Titan that carried the other Gemini Capsules and finally to the Saturn series including the massive Saturn V, to this day the biggest rocket every built. All of these were designed by Von Braun. We don’t make it to the moon (Apollo) without Von Braun
