#Germany was the world leader in many fields of #science.
Until the #Nazis came and threw out the best scientists because of the heritage.
The #US took in some of these refugees, many of them participated in the #ManhattanProject, and became the world leader in science and technology.
The Soviets may have put a satellite up first and Gagarin, but Gagarin had to jump out of his capsule because the parachute on it didn't work.
