As he chronicles Werner von Braun's life, Ward explodes many myths and misconceptions about the controversial genius who was a hero to some, a villain to others. The picture of von Braun that emerges is of a brilliant scientist with limitless curiosity and a drive to achieve his goals at almost any price-from developing the world's first ballistic missile used against the Allies in World War II to helping launch the first U.S. satellite that hurled Americans into space and the Saturn V super-booster that powered them to the moon. Along the way readers are introduced to the human side of this charismatic visionary who brought the United States into the Space Age.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51882976248096,"sku":"NEW1591149274","price":25.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81qDouoo5bL.jpg?v=1781851711","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/dr-space-the-life-of-werner-von-braun-1591149274","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
