Compare the US manned space program prior to November 28, 1983 (manned travel to the moon and back) to what has happened after that date (inability to launch and recover humans from even low earth orbit).

The US space program has been a disaster since they deported the Nazi.
Tell us who the NAZI was that had anything to do with our space program and that you claim was deported?   That never happened.

Doctor von Braun passed away in 1977. He had been a member of the NAZI SS and was never deported nor did he even face the possibility.

My Dad worked at the Marshall Space Flight Center in 1965 and 1966 in one of the old wood frame Army barracks buildings that had been converted into the computer room complex. He could walk out of the door and look up at Wernher von Braun's penthouse office on the top of Building 4200.
