In German, or Englisch, I know how to count down... und I'm learning Chinese, says Werner von Braun.

Written in 1961. Wild.


The rocket performed perfectly. It just landed on the wrong planet.


The 1960 von Braun biopic "I Aim at the Stars" had posters to which wags added "But Sometimes I Hit London".


That's a quote from the film itself.


Maybe if it was his department they would have hit London more often.
