Science With A Vengeance

The exploration of the upper atmosphere was given a jump start in the United States by German V-2 rockets - Hitler's 'vengeance weapon' - captured at the end of World War II. The science performed with these missiles was largely determined by the missile itself, such as learning more about the medium through which a ballistic missile travels.
