Operation Paperclip - Nazis to the Moon!
Episode notes
Hey it's a new year and a chance to better ourselves with some fringe knowledge!
Today we look at World War 2 (WW2 for those in a hurry) and the rush to remove Nazi scientists from their natural habitat and relocate them to a better eco-system where they could thrive as a species. This is known as Operation Paperclip and it is a very real thing that happened (for real!). We look first at the political climate that set this operation up and then at the dirty details. I hope you brought your learning cap, cuz fringe education is in session... and the learning cap is a mandatory piece of the fringe uniform... and we don't have any extras. Well let's get started!
In the intro we talk about the Boulder, Colorado and have a discussion about the irradiated mess that is Rocky Flats (It came up organically promise).
Don't forget to follo ...
