MP3AA

The Germans were making planes out of wood at the end of the war. Where'd they get all the metal necessary to build a rocket to the moon?

Then I thought, "Where did all the resources come from to build such an elaborate base on the moon?"

The final kicker was the motorcycle and side car riding on the moon.

Well, I expected nothing less from MP3AA.

It is not his fault, that he was not taught in school, that in the year 1942 a German A4-Rocket ("Aggregat 4") took off in Peenemünde/Germany and made it into space.

There were even more ballistic space flights until 1945, when an improved model reached a distance of more than 200km from earth.

The A4 rocket was engineered by a team of german rocket-scientists (i.e. Max Valier and Arthur Rudolph) under the lead of SS-Sturmbannführer Wernher von Braun and reached a speed of Mach 5 (4824 km/h - ~ 3,000mph.).

The same SS-dude and elite-NSDAP member, including some of his collegues, were brought against their will to the USA as POW's and had to engineer and supervise the whole american space and moon-landing programs. Since the last SS-dudes are either dead or too old to engineer, the american space crafts like the Columbia are more some sort of error-generators than reliable spacecrafts. Ain't it?
