Chapter 103 Father of the Rocket 2)

The intercontinental highway in the United States is quite wide and desolate.

Riding in a pickup truck given by Ford, Cialick and several of his guards were flying on the intercontinental highway in the United States, and there was no end at a glance.

This is Ford's latest BB pickup truck. Compared with the big guys like Raptors in later generations, the current Ford pickup truck looks even more cute, and it is indeed a bit cute. The cars of this era have almost round shapes!

The main task of coming to the United States has been almost completed. Contact two of Hitler's fans, Sius and Ford, pulling their capital and technology to serve Germany. At the same time, since they have come to the United States, Cialis has some other things.

For example, now, in the United States, there is an unsuccessful scientist who is worried about raising funds and conducting his experiments everywhere.

This man was in a difficult life, and it was not until afterwards that his research was valued, recognized by the scientific community, and even given him the title of Father of the Modern Rockets.

Yes! What Cirick is looking for is someone who can study ballistic missiles, no, sounding rockets!

When it comes to Rockets, many military fans will think of Braun, Qian Xuesen, Carmen and others, and these people can almost be regarded as his disciples! He is the first person to develop Rockets!

Robert Goddard, born in 1882 and died of throat cancer in 1945. He is an American professor, engineer and inventor, and the inventor of liquid rockets. He launched the world's first liquid rocket on March 16, 1926!

Goddard successfully applied three-axis control, gyroscope and controllable thrust to the rocket, effectively controlling the rocket's flight.

Goddard obtained a total of 214 patents in his life, of which 83 were obtained during his lifetime. In memory of him, NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center was named after him. The Goddard Crater on the Moon was also named after him.

However, in this era, Goddard is still poor. You know, Rockets were originally a national project, but now it is too difficult to let one person do it!

Although Goddard's work was revolutionary, his research and development work was rarely supported by the public. The newspapers sometimes laughed at his aerospace theory.

For example, the New York Times reporters mocked him for not even understanding basic physics in high school, and fantasizing about traveling to the moon all day long. They simply named Goddard "Moon Man".

Goddard was not afraid of public ridicule. He firmly believed in his ideals. At the same time, he raised funds everywhere. The biggest investment was probably Sius raised $50,000 for Goddard from the Gergenheim Foundation.

With these funds, Goddard moved his family and four assistants to Roswell, New Mexico to build his launch site.

From that time on, Goddard stayed in Roswell until his death.

Now, Goddard not only has to conduct research, but also constantly worry about funds! Cialick believes that as long as he offers excellent conditions, Goddard will definitely be willing to follow him!

Cialek had already planned to build a new base in Libya in which no one noticed it. Germany will fully guarantee Goddard's research and development funds, and at the same time, a group of technicians will be sent to conduct research together!

Libya is relatively secret, and at the same time, it is quite empty, so there is no need to worry about safety issues when launching rockets. It is the best!

The United States has a vast territory, and there are few railways in the United States, and almost everything is transported by roads.

In this era, it was just an era when horse-drawn carriages were eliminated and cars began to become popular. As an industrialized country, American horse-drawn carriages were eliminated quite quickly.

At least, the United States has a vast territory, so now I have been walking for a long time and I can hardly see vehicles.

"In Detroit, we see that the industrial strength of the United States is too strong, but here we feel that it is similar to our countryside." Graff said to Cialick while driving.

"That's because the United States has too vast territory. It is difficult to defeat a country with vast territory because they have enough strategic depth." Cialek sighed.

The European countries have too small territory, which is also the reason why the Blitzkrieg was able to win the blitzkrieg. But when they arrived in the Soviet Union, they could not advance because the Soviet Union's territory was too vast!

If Cialick is the case if the German army can advance to the United States, then the German army will also face a large-scale problem.

Forget it, these are still too far away. Even if Cyric traveled over and was full of confidence, he never thought of promoting the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, etc., and he had already made enough merits.

When I found Goddard, I had missiles that could hit the United States in advance. I would put a few of them when I was fine. It seemed very good.

Cialek took his mind back and looked outside, and suddenly, his eyes became sharp.

I don’t know when it started, but a truck was actually followed behind my vehicle!

Now, there is no heavy truck like Optimus Prime that later generations have a big nose. The truck behind it is still a primitive truck. For example, even the cab is not covered, and the back of this cargo box is filled with firewood!

"Gruff, when did the car behind me follow?" said Cirick.

"A minute, what, is there any problem?" Graff asked.

"I don't know, speed up, shake it off!" said Cyric.

Behind, a car is very common on the road, but now, Cirick always has an ominous premonition.

Speed ​​up! Hearing Cialique's order, Graff stepped on the accelerator, and the engine in front made a roar, and the speed of the car was getting faster and faster.

"Look, there's something in front!" Graf said loudly just as he accelerated.

The road in the distance was shiny, and it must be covered with broken glass! So far, Cialis was almost certain that there was definitely something wrong with it!

Those glasses must have been made long ago, and some will be exposed vertically from the tip. In this way, the tires will definitely be broken!

At the same time, the truck behind was emitting black smoke. Obviously, the other party also stepped on the accelerator to death and wanted to hit him!

This is a conspiracy, definitely a conspiracy, someone wants his own life! At this moment, a person's head flashed through Cialick's mind. Could it be him?

There was a sharp sound of brakes in his ears, and Graff stepped on the brakes.
Chapter completed!
