    I first learned about Von Braun from the movie October Sky, where four boys in a 1950’s coal mining town start building model rockets; they look up to NASA’s chief rocket engineer.

      It’s kinda weird to read from people they learned about von Braun in movies first when he was part of history lessons in my school.
