00:00Before the rockets, before the moon, it started in the middle of a war.
00:06World War II.
00:07Nazi Germany was building something no one had ever seen before.
00:12A weapon that didn't just fly, it fell from space.
00:16The V-2 rocket.
00:18It could travel faster than sound, strike without warning, and there was no way to stop it.
00:25But when the war ended, the weapon didn't disappear.
00:28Instead, the world's two new superpowers raced to take it.
00:34The United States and the Soviet Union.
00:37Because whoever controlled that technology would control the future.
00:42And this was just it.
