I was just connecting how it doesn’t surprise me that NASA has nazis working for them, based on my experience with this guy.

Yeah, actually seems like a fair bit of the people that build things for NASA live in the Deep South. And plenty of them I’m sure come up rooting for the wrong side of the Mason Dixon.

Alabama and Florida are where most of NASA is based. There’s also JPL in California, but the rockets are usually assembled in Huntsville, Alabama and, of course, take off from Cape Kennedy in Florida.

As was said- “he aimed for the stars and hit London.”
Or as Tom Lehrer sang- “‘Where the rockets go up, who cares where they come down? That’s not my department,’ said Wernher Von Braun.”
