科学家的选择
in 1945, with the soviet army rapidly advancing into germany, werner von braun, the german rocket physicist who invented the v-2, asked his staff to whom they should surrender. afraid of soviet cruelty to prisoners of war, they decided to surrender to the americans.
knowing that their ss guards had orders to execute them should they be in danger of falling into enemy hands, von braun convinced ss major kummer to disperse the team into nearby villages, supposedly to avoid american bombs. when the americans finally arrived, von braun was able to surrender his entire team of rocket engineers and all the technology they had invented for the nazis. they were promptly whisked away to the us, where they developed a rocket that could send men to the moon.
一九四五年，苏联军队长驱径入德国。发明 v2火箭的德国火箭物理学家维尔纳．冯．布劳恩问手下同事想向哪一方投降。大家都害怕苏联对战俘的残忍手段，决定投降美军。
冯．布劳恩知道，看守他们的纳粹党 卫军奉命，一旦他们可能落在敌人手上，就把他们处决。他于是说服党卫军少校库默尔把全队人分散到附近的农村去，表面理由是躲避美军轰炸。最后，美军来了，冯．布劳恩就率领整队火箭工程师投降，并献上为纳粹党发明的所有科技。他们马上被送到美国，研制出可以送人上月球的火箭。
