Today we're looking at the history of Huntsville, AL & Wernher Von Braun, the controversial scientist behind America's space program. I just got back from a work trip to Huntsville, the "Rocket City," where Von Braun's innovations led to revolutionary rockets like the Saturn V. Unravel the legacy of this brilliant mind, who dreamed of reaching the stars and forever shaped humanity's exploration of the cosmos.
