So they concentrated their rockey activity in huntsville

Huntsville population soon trippled

“And the citys future once again looked bright”

However, (el de anteojos) dice q vin braun no estaba interesado en eso, ek queria desarollar rockets
tque llegasen al espcio

Due to all the money spent on rocket development, On 1952, braun was able to get the exposure he
wanted sharing his ideas, putting him on the public eye

Neufeld states that among other scientists, von braun helped to transmit the isea to usa civilians
than space travel wasnt as lejos o ridiculo como se veia

April 1955 he got the full citizenship

Ed buckee, founding director of us space and rocket center

He states that there was no doubt on brauns mind he was american and his team too, and was
proud of it

ENNCONTRA

the navys vanguard rocket was granted the prime spot for launching americas first satellite

(Esto se puede entender que ek no era el unico con desarrolo y capacidad para llegar al espacio en
usa)

“He felt discouraged”

Tambien, rusia lanzo su primer spunik, pensaron que era una bomva que estaba en orbita y fue un
shock

26:30 people started questioning how russian could he winning in this race

1858 creation od NASA with eseinhower

By 1960 all his team and braun wnet to nasa

Ne started paying full atettnion to his dream of space

31:02

Ed duckee, states that von braun was the one who made kennedy had commitment towards aircraft
in relation to the moon, he send him a letter to kennedy, stating that hey couldnt beat the soviets in
the orbit but they could beat them incthe moo
Esto demuestra como segun el documental braun fue el maximo influyente en que estDos unidos
quiera y invierta energia para llegar a la luna. Sino hubiese esraso el, tal vez no hubiese ido con ese
pace

Kennedy did a speech saying “ we chose to go to the moon, not because it is easy but because it is
hard” this gives una fe a la población americana, alentandonolos, dandoles fe nacional, esto por von
braun

Fue un speech publico

His greatest strength eas his leadership and management skills

He was strong, he could talk to politicians

Good at public outreach, good at running

Waring declares that everyone would want someone like him

33:38

Waring, he declares braun manage to get all the diverse people to comento an accomodation

34:08

Waring, his persona was so big, portrays him as “disney star, exotic mad german scientist, but also a
skillfull technological manager”

34:20

El de anteojos: i think he was the maestro of his team, he was aware of everything they had to have”

Ed

34:55

He seldom lost some member of the team,

Muchos de los integrantes se pudieron haber ido a empresas privadas en los 60 y ganar mucha mas
plata, oero se quedaron ganando lo que kes daba el gobierno

35:15
“He never forget his audience, ever have a charming and eloquent he played consistently to the
national media and political powers in Washington

36:20

Kennedy told braun when he went to huntsville “ that’s the most impressive machine I ever seen”

He was really moved

Bon braun was the star of the show that day

36:40

Local economy and culture flourished

Shops, symohony, ballet, lutheran church,planetario y observatorio

EN CONTRA

37:20

Still faced a major obstacle to progress the racist discrimination and segregation of the Jim Crow
south view had African-Americans who had struggled for equality their entire lives struggled for
acceptance struggle for access to good schools struggled to get good jobs and hear you had foreign
immigrants who came in with great jobs and immediately were making connections the city in the
state began building new schools for their kids and so from the perspective of African-Americans this
was not altogether a positive story it revealed fractures and problems in huntsville

38:10

Waring

In brauns Credit, although he did not initiate his efforts to promote civil rights in the south he did not
dawdle either and once he took on the job he was a powerful force and helping in huntsville

(El de anteojos)

38:40

I think what really motivated him as always was his pragmatic side, he knew what NASA leadership
wanted he knew what president Kennedy and then what president Johnson want it done, what kind
of a state Alabama needed to be to move into a brighter future and I wasn’t gonna be one where
bus were segregated door children been killed in the streets and that was in the state that van Braun
wanted to live in and he knew that wasn’t a good future

40:20
The first manned Test of the Saturn 1B ended in tragedy. A Fire in Apollo 1s command module killed
astronauts Gus Grissom Ed White and Roger Chaffee. That brought nasa to its knees, many of us
thought it was over, rwe would never get to the moon

But bom braun and other key people, said we can fix this and we can continue to fly

He managed to alzar la moral y la fe de la gente en ka nasa. A la vez demuestta como aunque haya
muerto gente em seguia seguro de su plan. Otro ejemplo que estaba absorbido por su sueño,
muerte de gente de los judios en Alemania, y ahira en usa

Waring

“He is a complicated person, and that what makes him fascinated

His oegacy is not simple

51:10

He inspired the people to design

(Ek de anteojos) 51:20

That’s why it’s important to see him as thhemaestro he doesn’t play the instrumentsHe’s just doing
all of the orchestration

von braun impact persists in the US space program today, from the International space Station to
NASAS new space launch systems. The ideas, techniques and technology that he and his team
developed decades ago continue to shape the way we explore space. Among his monumental
legacies, von braun left his mark on huntsville as well, the US space and rocket Centre continues to
thrive as a public museum, and stands as a perpetual reminder Of von Brown’s grand vision. And for
programs like space camp von brauns work continue to inspire America’s youth
Ed

52:20

He like to talk about the next generation he loved to communicate with young people and he felt it
was important for the country to nurture the next generation who might become the innovators, the
problem solvers and creators of of new equipment and new tecnology

El de anteojos

52:50

All government programs that we’ve ever had I don’t think any motivated young people more than
nasa has. I think the human spaceflight aspect of nasa has been at the top of that. Nasa is the best
agency to stimulate that in our young people and I just hate to see that aspect of the goverment go
away
