In Space No One Can Hear You Sieg Heil | The Space Race (Part 1)

As the 2nd World War drew to a close, the Nazis’ rocket programme would form the basis of Man’s quest to conquer space. But why is this always framed as a race between the USA and the USSR, when Hitler got there first? The show for people who like history but don't care what actually happened.
