      I first learned about Von Braun from the movie October Sky, where four boys in a 1950’s coal mining town start building model rockets; they look up to NASA’s chief rocket engineer.

        It’s kinda weird to read from people they learned about von Braun in movies first when he was part of history lessons in my school.

      Show sucks from season 2 onwards. Ridiculous and unbelievable drama of unstable personalities

          I couldn’t bear the cringe anymore when the

          season 3 spoilers

          step-mom-fetish son of Gordo turns into an outright psychopath and starts ruining basically everything.

          I ended up stopping it in season 2 because it wasn’t doing anything cool with the alt history, but I think that would have made me quit again.

      Thanks for the song!

      TIL

      To make this song even more spot on, Lehrer used eight bars from the well-known German national anthem “Das Lied der Deutschen” as a song intro :-)
