@@chrisreaney1980Such a simplistic viewpoint. Von Braun wanted to conquer space, not England. He used Hitler's resources for his research and development and dragged out the development of the V2 until it was too late for the Germans. When the war ended the Soviets captured some of his scientists and the rest came to America. Gene Kranz has a fascinating chapter on the Germans in his book, "Failure Is Not An Option". Easter egg from BTTF3: Doc Brown mentioned that his name is actually Von Braun and that his father changed it during the first world war. Perhaps Doc is a relative?

Nah... it would. Remember they managed this way back in the 1950's... when they were far worse off than this, and technology and any knowledge of space(based on experience) was really in a pitiful state. Launching a rocket into space isn't hard anymore- not for a very long time. Private companies do it all the time in order to launch satellites into space (there are thousands upon thousands of self-launched satellites). The only thing prohibiting you and a bunch of guys from down the pub, launching your own rocket on some random day, using a DIY launchpad, and orbiting the earth at least once.... is the price of fuel... and government regulations! The tech to make it possible is everywhere, relatively "cheap"- and some of it free: AI, materials, electronics, CPUs, SoCs and more. It's all "cheap" and easy to come by- and the knowledge of physics and space is well-tested and well-grounded, and plentiful.
My dream was starting a nonprofit organization, with friends and my kids it has become a reality. Quetzal Ecology nonprofit organization recycles aluminum cans and plastic bottles in Sonoma County California to help school projects in the rainforest mountains of Cuetzalan and San Miguel Tzinacapan Puebla Mexico. We also help a local school. Never give up on your dreams; I fought in the Tubbs and Kincaid fires and our nonprofit organization has healed the brokenness I felt after losing almost everything in 2017 from the fire. My friends have helped my dream come true to help others. This video about the rocket man made me smile. Never give up on your dreams.

Very nice project and i am glad that you were able to fulfill your dream :) Little side-note tho; I would rework the website a little bit. White text on a very bright green is one of many design sins i've seen there. Also using a actuall hero-element covering the whole screen could work wonders and adding a slight shadow to the text in the hero-component could help as well.

Even if man never went to the moon, it was the inspiration and man-hours put into the technology that we all use today that got us this far. Even if we didn't land on the moon, it was a hell of a ride. We must keep on going, improving our way of life, and inspiring young minds to reach for the stars. Even if we never get there, don't feel down; feel proud. There is nothing wrong with failure as long as lessons are learned along the way.
A capsule landing on the ground hits pretty hard. That's why the space program always had splash downs.

what film is this
Jules Verne wrote “De la Terre à la Lune” in 1865 and George Méliès' A Trip to the Moon movie.
According to the Internet, the Atlas rocket is fueled by a combination of RP-1 kerosene and liquid oxygen, neither of which is exotic enough to attract the attention of the government. But they needed a plot device for the story, so...
Movie name?
The title is so deceptive, he quit flying to help his family run the farm.
Dreams crushed by the government? To many to count.😢
❤ TEARS CAME TO MY EYES OF LOVE AND THE DETERMINATION OF PEOPLE...
unfortunately human history has shown that most people are too simple-minded and unimaginative to understand the very small number of individuals like Farmer.
