GUEST,clogger BS: Inventions 'claimed' to be American (145* d) RE: BS: Inventions 'claimed' to be American 03 Jan 06


sorry ROBO Mr Von Braun built the first liquid rockets! They used a peroxide solution ( not too popular with the flight crew as you tended to burst into flames if you spilt any on anything organic)!
Granted that given the choice he surrendered to the Americans with most of his reserch papers! He went on to develop the Saturn 5 Rockets that went to the moon.
The point I wished to highlight was that many inventions are "hijacked" by vested interests and the original inventor ignored.
I would look foreward to any inteligent discourse on this or indeed any other related matter. You are now entering my faveourite playground.... WELCOME! Incidentaly were not troll's an english invention (lol)
