Interesting how he was forced to dig in the mines and arrested by the soviets

Also interesting talking about how he got them so many accomplishments but still was arrested and investigated by the Soviet officers because they were paranoid about his work in the propulsion lab

I am on chapter 8 that is talking about sergei korolev. Very interesting guy. His note to his wife was adorable and really brings life to the genius this man was. He was behind so many important/impressive accomplishments like the Sputnik’s and most of the early launched orbits with animals like the dogs.
