Скачать или смотреть Operation Paperclip: The Dark Deal Behind the Space Race

After World War II ended, the world believed justice was coming for the scientists behind Nazi Germany’s weapons and experiments.
But instead of prison… many were given jobs.
By the United States.

This secret program was called Operation Paperclip.

Its goal?
To collect Germany’s top scientists before the Soviet Union could.
Rocket engineers, chemists, doctors — over 1,600 of them — were quietly brought to America.

Some had worked directly for Hitler.
Some had overseen horrific experiments.
But their knowledge was valuable… especially for rockets and nuclear research.

One of the most famous was Wernher von Braun, the engineer behind the Nazi V-2 missile — a weapon that killed thousands.
In America, he became a celebrated NASA scientist…
and helped design the rockets that took humans to the Moon.

So the uncomfortable truth is this:

The Space Age wasn’t built only on innovation and exploration.
It was built, in part, on the knowledge of men who once served the Third Reich.

History isn’t always heroic.
Sometimes… it’s a deal made in the shadows.
