- To explore this 360° video, just grab the screen with the mouse, or finger on a mobile device and move in any direction. Better yet, on a mobile device just tilt the screen to look around naturally! When you see the V2 rocket - don't forget to look up!
This short experimental 360° video, uploaded to mark the occasion of our 10th Anniversary on RUclips, shows some views of our most recent visit to Usedom island, in North-East Germany, and Peenemünde - the birthplace of the first object to reach space: the wartime German army V2 missile.

I’ve never experienced the 360° effect before just amazing
Wonderful video! It's so nice to be able to explore Peenemunde this way rather than being limited by what the camera can see in a 'standard' type video and by what the videographer wants you to see. I can pause at anytime and just have a 360⁰ look around, it really adds quite a completely different dimension to viewing a video.
love the interactive 360 degree panorama effect , awesome job , great video
Thank you for that wonderful trek around the site. I have always wanted to go to Peenemunde and with your help I have achieved that in some sense. I hope to go before I am unable to get about completely, I have severe mobility issues. Thank you again. I am looking forward to more excellent videos.
I like the tech you used to video this site. Worked well today. I also liked the subject of your video.
Superb 360 footage and History tour. Thanks.
Congratulations! Thanks for sharing the nice job you do.
Fascinating how kind of similar the landscapes looks compared to Cape Canaveral
Yeah, same guys that envisaged/built it ^^
At first I was surprised at how much the camera moved. - Until I realized that my tablet's movements are the cause ...
Great serie,its the nearest way to touch the History(at least from Chile).Really thanks very much for yours videos Astronomy and Nature TV.My apologies for my English.Your videos are very valuables .Subscribed and Liked.
More videos about A4 systems in detail PLS!
This is a great video. Thanks a lot.
Great content series on the V2 all around. Very much in depth and all encompassing. Thank you. I would love to understand more about the electronics in between the gyro's and the carbon vanes. How did the rocket initially correct for vertical flight and then gradually start pitching over in the direction of the target? What electronics were used to control that trajectory? Thanks again!
Thanks.. nicely done… as always
That was cool!
I recommend the “Zur Zwiebel” Hotel in Penemünde 🙂
Thanks for sharing. 😉👌🏼
As a child I saw the V2 rocket going up ( towards England ? )
hello, i have been watching all V-2 video series and I wish you could do one especially about the warhead part of it.
Splendid! Well done Robert - did you take a spade with you?
Has a place in history, as the location that the first man made object was launched into what is considered 'space'.
fascinating it can capture the shadow of the stick and camera, but none of itself. And the arm and hand holding it is not occluded by itself. Not clear how that happens. A clue to invisibility cloaking?
Because the 360º view extends even to the 'south' pole of the scene, there is no part of the scene occluded by the pole from one section of the pixel plane that is not picked up by the antipode view pixel plane of the sensor(s).
The stick is the one part of the view that always looks exactly the same no matter what, so the software has no trouble simply ignoring the stick's contribution to that side of the sensor(s) pixels and replacing it with what the sensor is imaging unobstructed on the other side. And all the way around likewise.
What remains is a tiny amount of distortion of the holding-hand right near the pole.
very cool
Great job!
great video
Nice work with the ???Insta360X??? maybe, Robert! I love mine. Don't get subjects as interesting as this though. Looking forward to all your follow ups. Thanks for posting.
Great video, never seen a video like it before. Did they only develop and test the rockets or did did they ever launch strikes directly from Peenemünde?
Hi Ian, nice to hear from you. Peenemünde was strictly for research and development. There were plenty of V2 missile launches from the site but all for test purposes - though one 'round' did go awry and hit Sweden in 1944 (the worlds first inter-country missile strike, btw, albeit accidental). We are still in Peenemünde - its rained most days, just like being back in Blighty. Talk soon. Rob
What's with the left lens of your glasses being dark, and the right lens not? Have you had an eye problem? Are you okay?
Armchair tourism at its best. I found myself pausing frequently just to look around, but then I had to . Using the lowest resolution that was usable caused my internet speed to buffer constantly (not your problem) . I wonder how all these buildings survived the intense bombing that this site was subjected to, or perhaps they were rebuilt afterwards.
What is the boat toward the end? Was it a ferry you took to get here?
From the dumb question file: I've noticed most of the Nazi built buildings and bunkers were constructed from the small red brick then covered over with a layer.Were the 8" cement blocks not available then or hadn't been invented yet or?Would've cut time down quite a bit of time you would think.
Not *enough electricity* for a bomb.
Não fosse VON BRAUN os EUA não teriam nenhum lançador até hoje hahaha
Very good, but you filmed the missile for few seconds...why don't stop and show better what is the main attraction?
Why not pause the video? You can still pan around even when the video is paused. KR, DB.

*wow* this is great. Nice video brother.
I don't like saying negative things on someone's video, normally.
yet, let's please remember to include of course, as i haven't seen anything mentioned in a single video about the A4 V2 rocket, or it's godfather, and officially the premiere rocket man in the history of America: Werner Von Braun...
*Verner Von Braun, was a brilliant man, a quite capable rocket engineer, and all that sounds great! Yet, he was also a ardent NAZI. He was of course a Party member, and stood by, right beside literally hundreds of slave laborers who were worked to death as a state policy. To me it doesn't matter how smart, clever, advanced, or successful a person is. No amount of beneficial information could change what he participated in. He should have been 'gleened' for all relevant information, at a posh resort. Upon completing his debriefing, he should have been handed a shovel, and made to dig until his body perished, completely. Or hung.*
Same with all the nearly 1,500 other NAZI scientists we harnessed after the war. Same with all the Japanese scientists we conscripted, most especially those who operated 'the water and treatment' facility in China, unit 731. Hiro IShi... should have been put to the wall, and shot on sight.
War Criminals...All.
The wars over

Awful video! It's horrible trying to explore Peenemünde in this way, with all of the dreadful distortion to the normal camera view, corrupting what you're trying to show us. Seeing all 360° in one screen is pointless. It's in a different league to your normally high video quality. This video cannot be viewed properly in full screen in any of my browsers, either showing nothing at all or showing a view with weird twisting throughout the view. And even when seen in a small video frame the residual distortion of the partial view is still quite distracting. It's also easy to miss completely the things which were supposed to be looking at.
I've never seen the point of these so-called 360° videos. Why not simply point the camera towards the things which are being described? At least you'll have everyone 'on the same page' as yourself, and you'll not have any negative responses about video quality.
And yes, I was being somewhat tongue-in-cheek with that first paragraph, by typing the opposite of John Cashwell's comment from 3 years earlier. But, as you infer at the start, it is a serious limitation to the watchability of the video for many viewers.
It's also almost impossible to look upwards to the top of the rocket without the frame view video either stopping, resetting or else closing down altogether. I did manage to see it for an instant, but only with the video stopped and after several attempts.
Nonetheless, thanks for trying. 🙂👍
