That scientist, von Braun, was the principle designer behind the Nazi's rocket program. He was relieved of his duties in the US space program when he started saying that man couldn't reach the moon in one jump using the style of rockets he had invented, the Saturn type which was the basis of all the Apollo missions.
Interesting.
