Nazi Scientists Built A Sun Gun In Orbit — Then Allied Spies Discovered The Impossible Plan

In 1945, American intelligence officers stormed a secret Nazi facility hidden in the Harz Mountains of Germany. What they found would change our understanding of space warfare forever—blueprints for an orbital weapon so terrifying, it remained classified for over 50 years.
The Sonnengewehr (Sun Gun) was Nazi Germany's plan to weaponize space itself: a massive 9-square-kilometer mirror orbiting 5,100 miles above Earth, capable of focusing the sun's rays into a concentrated death beam that could incinerate entire cities in minutes. No defense. No interception. No escape.

This wasn't science fiction—it was advanced Nazi engineering led by rocket pioneer Hermann Oberth, the mentor of Wernher von Braun. The physics were sound. The calculations were accurate. And Allied intelligence took it deadly seriously.

In this documentary, we reveal:
✅ The complete technical specifications of the Nazi Sun Gun
✅ How Hermann Oberth's theories became Hitler's doomsday weapon
✅ The secret Hillersleben facility where it was designed
✅ Why Allied scientists feared it could actually work
✅ Operation Paperclip's darkest discovery
✅ How Soviet spies learned about the weapon
✅ Why the 1967 Outer Space Treaty banned such weapons
✅ Whether the Sun Gun could be built TODAY
From declassified CIA documents to modern space weapons research, this is the complete story of the weapon that almost was—and the shadow it still casts over orbital warfare today.
