I met von braun with bucky fuller and i ask him to write me a line for my song called unite the world. He wrote:
" hitch your wagon to a star it really works"
No matter who you are hitch your wagon to a star it really works ended up as the line he agreed on.
WHen i met him he was trying to transport a tea cup with a laser? really mickey anaheim ca. 77 palm beach,
this happened at notre dame U, kellogs hall, about 19 76 or so. he lived in german town virginia i think it was.
he sent me a letter and i stepped out of the front door of my geodesic dome in carbondale ill. I bought bucky fuller dome home when he left town to Boston and the post man handed me the letter from werner. It was a clear day but one rain drop landed on the letter. When i opened it, the water hit his signature and it was done with a magic marker and it blurred it. very strange of the odds of that happening. He was a giant and he always had his shoulders like he was trying to get off the ground.
the saturn 5 was the greatest thing i can think of invented by man. he was cheerful and he and bucky and bill lear ( lear jet) were there together with me listening to these maniacs. they had so much fun together with buz aldren and cooper and others around that flew there jets up for the afternoon to attend the top 300 inventors in the world it was the 100 year birthday of the college there. 300 doctorates that invented the nuclear sub, transistor, Dr. Weisner - increased protein wheat, Bill Lear, longest tram guy, the geodesic dome bucky had done the worlds fair in canada with a 1/4 mile dome, there were 12 of them that got honorary doctors degrees that day. I can't think of them all right now. I was the only one there because i audio recorded all of bucky's talks and i was let in to the event with robbed 300 doctors seated to watch and me. lots of moon men astronauts and inventors what a day that was. sorry if i am off topic but robM got me thinking of it.

One thing about the USA in WW-II was we didn't go after the 'spoils of war' and take what we wanted. The Marshall Plan spent billions rebuilding Europe and MacArthur did the same in Japan.
