>>14171100>Dude there's from /pol/ that I believe, how did it happen.There were ~400k people that all worked on Apollo program in some way shape or form, NASA had some ~10k scientists and engineers working in the 60s during the apollo program. Many of them working through the old Areospace firms that NASA had contracted, they weren't all staffed with German engineers given than only 1600 engineers and technicans came over because of operation paperclip.
>>14171351>Why did Nazi scientists achieve an invention capability no country ever reached?The United States was the technological powerhouse of WW2, not Germany. Things like Proximity fuses, industrial scale Oil to Rubber conversion, and Nuclear Fission were far more important to winning the war than a plane that flies around Hydrazine or a rocket that failed as a weapons system because of low production numbers and could only carry a 1 ton warhead. Compare this to the 13000 B-17s that were built and could carry up to 7.8 tons of bombs.
