A new documentary from Unity House films televised by Channel 4 public broadcasting in the UK. It presents the American cultivation of German scientists and engineers after WWII, whose Nazi Party affiliations and war crimes were whitewashed by U.S. government agencies.
[please note: due to a film editing error, the “he” in my comment that begins “After Kennedy made that speech, he went to a park” refers not to President Kennedy but to NASA Deputy Administrator Robert Seamans (1918-2008), who told me in 1989 about sitting on a bench in Georgetown’s Montrose Park, staring at the full moon, and wondering if he was “nuts” to try to send people there]
