  • In the crucible of World War II, Germany’s most brilliant scientists must race to create an arsenal of terrifying new weapons of mass destruction, even an atomic bomb.
    Before the war was over, they produced a series of technological firsts that were the basis for many modern day air and spacecraft. This doc reveals the circumstances scientists faced under Hitler, and tracks amazing technological innovations. It highlights major scientific disciplines and the inventions of Wernher von Braun or Werner Heisenberg, among others

      some of the stuff in this is just as fake as the stuff from the History Channel.. 2,500 major war criminals, of whom 177 were tried. Western Allies released more than 3,300 Grand Admiral Erich Raeder, Walther Funk, and Konstantin von Neurath were let go. if the Holocaust was what they said it was why did they let so many go and charge so few. same for the guy that pretty much ran our NASA program and several others

    That X Ray gun was basically a nuclear blast turned into a laser beam form.
    That could've been a truly nightmarish weapon had it gone into mass production. But it seems they realized it would've damaged everything nearby far too much.
    Germany from 1934 to April 1945 kept inventing and researching. Had the scientists had more funding and materials and a better workforce instead of slaves, even if they had lost as they did in history, with such innovations, we might've had colonies on the Moon and Mars by now. War has a tendency to create leaps of technology that can never be matched in peacetime.

And the lies we read from all of you, and your denials of these hidden facts is again, shocking. You simply know nothing about WW2, as everything you think, what we read from all of you, is nothing at all like any truth of WW2, and your accounts are only found in your own history books, that are simply the funniest read anyone that's studied world history could read, the bull is like nothing this world had ever seen before.

You do what you can to prevent your enemy from getting more powerful. With that said, the country with nuclear power was the Super Power in technology. Period. Germany was merely creative.

    i thought propellor aircraft were already "pulled" rather than pushed. the airflow over the wings sucked the wing up and props used the same principle. im probably wrong but if you take a spoon and running water from a tap, hold the spoon by its end and move it into the stream of water so it flows over bowl the convex end gets sucked in and of course the concave repels, like a wing. doesnt mean props work on the the same principle though i guess, just a thought, im bored and the smokes not bad.

    The biggest issue with this is the fact that it begins with the “American nightmare” when the germans were running as fast as they could to surrender to us. People just don’t realize that WW2 in Europe was mostly fought between Russia and Germany over serious and long lasting tension of fundamental core beliefs and fear of each-other. History is confusing always important to take every side into account. The war in the east is still the largest man for man conflict we have had on this planet.

What transformative processes took place? How did it supposedly work? There's either alot more to the story or the thing is just some type of curiosity that has no practical purpose for aviation.

    Fascinating documentary! One of the best I've ever watched and extremely well narrated. The German wonder weapons depicted were decades ahead of their time, but because Germany was being bombed night and day, their factories could not produce enough of these weapons to turn the tide of the war. In the end it was a case of quantity overcoming quality in favour of the Allies. The only chance the Germans had to win the war was to produce an atomic bomb before the Allies did, but they failed to do that and so the war was lost for them. I often wonder what the world would have looked like today, had Germany won the war.

    They used the heavy water from Norsk Hydro in Norway for their experiments. Brave men from the resistance sabotaged the factory and sunk the ferry that had a substantial amount of it in barrels waiting to be shipped to Germany.
    On top of that Zuse made the first mechanical computer and planned to make it electro-mechanical in order to boost the speed.

      @34:47 they indicate that there was no atomic weapon, and that they didn't have a clue how to make one. A hydrogen bomb and an atomic bomb are both types of nuclear weapons, but the two devices are very different from each other. In a nutshell, an atomic bomb is a fission device, while a hydrogen bomb uses fission to power a fusion reaction. In other words, an atomic bomb can be used as a trigger for a hydrogen bomb. The problem? They didn't have an atomic bomb.

    A huge factor was Hitler's belief in deadlines - programs would be given arbitrary, immutable, and frequently ridiculous deadlines that if not met killed the project - the crew in Los Alamos were given the means and told to go at it until success. Hitler's sheer pig-ignorance did immense damage; he could have had a functioning jet in 1938 but declared that ' we have no need of such a weapon ' , and when shown the prototype automatic rifle refused to mass-produce it as ' my old Mauser Carabiner is good enough for any purpose. '

    Nitpicky note, but it's not a UFO if it's an identified aircraft with a model number.

    So important that people remember history, and how close we were to having a German New World Order. Young people have no idea these days, of how close we were to LOSING WW2 and speaking German now instead of English.

      There's always been a change of empires in human history, one day this will all change and become something new, I must admit I hope an empire soon changes how we live, I don't agree with transgender operations for kids, I don't agree with having to walk on egg shells over gender identity, I don't agree with countries halfway around the world having to take in refugees where they milk our systems and extremists know this and abuse it to commit terrorist attacks, I don't agree in a country (any country) putting other people first over their own country and people, I don't like how sensitive people have become to others expressing opinions (becoming to sensitive is a bad way for people to go as a planet if meaningful conversations are to be held on any subjects). I think a New World Order is needed again. Which country will be at the forefront of that I don't know, what beliefs will they push I don't know, I don't need to it won't be in my lifetime. But the world will change again someday and hopefully for the better.
