...What meinarsche sees when he looks in a mirror.

The first rocket was invented by Robert Goddard, an American.
The first jet engine design was submitted by Frank Whittle, a Brit.
Go sit in the corner.

First, you failed to point out that Von Braun operated years after Goddard and what he achieved was done standing on Goddard's shoulders.
Second, rockets have been around for thousands of years.
"The first rockets may have appeared as early as the 10th century Song dynasty China, however more solid documentary evidence does not appear until the 13th century. The technology probably spread across Eurasia in the wake of the Mongol invasions of the mid-13th century. Usage of rockets as weapons prior to modern rocketry is attested in China, Korea, India, and Europe. One of the first recorded rocket launchers is the "wasp nest" fire arrow launcher produced by the Ming dynasty in 1380. In Europe rockets were also used in the same year at the Battle of Chioggia. The Joseon kingdom of Korea made use of a type of mobile multiple rocket launcher known as the "Munjong Hwacha" by 1451. Iron cased rockets, known as Mysorean rockets, were developed in Kingdom of Mysore by the late 15th century and were later copied by the British. The later models and improvements were known as the Congreve rocket and used in the Napoleonic Wars.

..to be recognized by mein as a Don Rickles wana-be of course it's an honor, Rickles was the absolute king of interactive comedy, he never had to use written scripts, his mind was so quick with ad-libs that nobody that ever worked with him could keep up, & he was sharp until his dying days, he was truly gifted.

The real problem is you are so demented and deluded you failed to grasp my point, which was simply that to buttress your argument you cited two "facts" that were flat-out wrong.  And in trying to rebut one of them (you didn't even try with the other) all you did was blather on ad nauseam about all the wonderful things your Nazi hero did with slave labor at Peenemunde.  Which HAD NOTHING TO DO with the fact that Goddard's experiments with liquid-fueled rockets led to the first launch ever of such a device in March 1926, when Von Braun was about to turn 14.
Von Braun discovered Goddard's work in the mid'30s  "At the time, Germany was highly interested in American physicist Robert H. Goddard's research. Before 1939, German scientists occasionally contacted Goddard directly with technical questions. Wernher von Braun used Goddard's plans from various journals and incorporated them into the building of the Aggregat (A) series of rockets. The A-4 rocket would become well known as the V-2. In 1963, von Braun reflected on the history of rocketry, and said of Goddard's work: 'His rockets ... may have been rather crude by present-day standards, but they blazed the trail and incorporated many features used in our most modern rockets and space vehicles.'"
OK, now that you've soiled yourself in embarrassment let me remind you that you've still not even had the balls to concede I was also right about the first jet engine being designed by Frank Whittle of GREAT BRITAIN.
And it gets worse for you.  I first used your cunning Penn Jillette gif YEARS AGO.
Feel free to confess your abject failure
Oh, and eat this.

I'm getting a little lost here.  Is this thread about ponies, missiles, or missile ponies?

YOU are the one who used two examples in your argument that were WRONG.
YOU were the one who weakly tried to rebut me with a looooooooong post about your rocket man Von Braun.  Please go back up the page and read YOUR "endless prattle about rockets."
NOW, when you have nothing left to say you try to obfuscate and deflect.
It's not working.
Because you're NUTS.
Everyone knows it.
I'll  bet even you know it.......
