I would have a guess that one was the victim of V2 technology and the other used V2 technology for the moon landing.

 

Both of the rockets were designed by Werner von Braun and they had three other common components:

1. they both landed where they were expected to land
2. there was a large crater associated with the landing
3. the eagle landed in both instances, one german one american

 

Damn and Blast! i thought i was asking a hard question! But you got it!

 

probably got it from the same website you used dude.

 

I never got it from a website. I used the old fashioned method, a Book!

 

Amazing what being trapped in your study by a fallen bookcase will make you do.

 

Or maybe you are just a 50+ year old engineer who grew up through the Gemini and Apollo programs? Thanks to Walter Cronkite! Okay make that 55+ now! And I agree with the books program, as I am an avid reader. Where the problem lies is remembering what book you read about the story.

You won't find my answer on any web site, I can assure you of that. By next week you won't even find it in my brain cells either.

Next question?

 

Next question about what? ;-)

 

This is not directly linked to the question however it is surely a result. This extract from NASA regarding engines is mind boggling.

I will post the full piece on Rocketry in the "General Forum".

 

NEXT QUESTION........:becky:
With the cost of petrol the next war will be unaffordable so.........................

The question is!

Which country in the world has the most camels?

 

Australia. If I remember right, they were imported to because of their ability to cover large areas and carry huge loads in the outback!

 

Sorry Morse,

Australia is not even in the top 40.


NEXT..............................................!

 

Come on everyone, I thought I would have more than one guess!

 

I'm opting for Sudan, with 3,200,000 Camels (World Camel Population: 19,074,168)

 

How about Ruusia?

 

A pretty good piece of research however not correct. So the one with the most has a lot of camels don't they.

 

Sorry Morse, still not correct!

 

Are we being too clever here? I'll guess Saudi Arabia

 

I'll take a long shot, thinking commerce here:

Niger and the Salt Trade

It has to be something like that .... but honestly I have no idea.

I don't even own a camel, but I have 2 pugs, 3 cats and the kids have 12 horses?

I did ride a camel in Cairo - so I understand the saying "don't drink and ride".
