Well, rocket science itself, the science, like Sokolski or whatever, the rocket equation was Russian.

We had Goddard over here in the U.S.

who actually technically is the father of liquid propulsion, but it was very like low power liquid propulsion.

Wasn't Jack Parsons quite a bit later?

Like, wasn't he like...

40s 50s 60s like in that era of of history as opposed because yeah because the rocket equation was I think yeah he died in 52 he died in 52 okay okay yeah so he was a little bit earlier

I mean, I think the idea of like, I mean, Von Braun wrote papers and stuff when he was a kid talking about space travel and things like that.

Yeah, but using rockets?

Mm-hmm.

Oh, okay.

Yeah.

So he was parts of like rocket clubs and stuff and, you know, before the SS and all, you know, before all the Nazi stuff and...

Unfortunately, with his political climate, he was offered either you die or you start building us these rockets, basically.

And he chose to build rockets.

And I think his goal, according to his writings as a young person, was to always explore.

But the means in which he ended up ever building them was for war and from a horrible regime, as we know.

But, yeah, I mean, I think people understood that rockets would work in space for a long time because it's recoil.

A rocket is a gun.

You know, it's like my favorite thing to think about is like how an A-10 Warthog, you know, when it's flying.

Have you ever seen the Gatling gun on an A-10 Warthog?
