WW2 Von Braun Rocket Scientist Hans Kennel signed page Op Paperclip NASA. Approx 5 x 3 inch piece with Space images hand signed. Hans studied at the Darmstadt (Germany) University of Technology; in 1955, he received a master’s degree in mechanical engineering, specializing in Hydraulics. In the fall of the next year, he came to Huntsville to work as an Aerospace Engineer for Wernher von Braun's group, created by the Army Ballistic Missile Agency via "Operation Paperclip." Hans' field of expertise was Guidance and Control Flight Software. In 1960, along with the German rocket scientists, he transferred to what would soon become NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, Redstone Arsenal. Once in Huntsville, Hans met Margarete "Margaret" Muller, daughter of Christian Wilhelm Muller and Anna Maria Lang. Originally from Kleinaspach, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, Margaret had come to the U.S. as an au-pair for the family of Rudolf Schlidt, one of the original von Braun team members. In 1961, Hans and Margaret married in Kleinaspach, returning to Huntsville and making the town their permanent home. Their children would all be born here. During his Redstone tenure, Hans worked on many space and rocket projects, the Jupiter, Saturn V, Space Lab, Hubble Space Telescope, and HEAO-2 (Einstein X-ray Telescope) projects in particular. His most notable area of work was in the development of new software algorithms involving space vehicle angular momentum management and control moment gyros. These algorithms were successfully used on Skylab for the original 1973 and 1974 missions, as well as the Skylab re-entry mission in 1979. Hans' Control Moment Gyro Steering Law was advanced and versatile enough to be used years later by the International Space Station. For this work, he received several commendations, including the two highest awards given to NASA employees: the NASA Exceptional Service Medal and the NASA Medal for Exceptional Scientific Achievement. Hans retired in 1992 after 36 years of government service. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity. We combine postage on multiple winning lots and can ship worldwide.

WW2 Von Braun Rocket Scientist Oscar Holderer signed page Op Paperclip. Approx 5 x 3 inch piece hand signed. During World War II, Holderer worked for the German military as a low-level engineer under Wernher von Braun. When the war ended, the United States selected 100 of von Braun's men to help improve the United States' rocket technology as part of Operation Paperclip. Shortly thereafter, another 20 were selected.[4] Holderer was part of the second 20, arriving in 1945 as part of the second group. After a few years in White Sands, New Mexico, the Paperclip team moved to Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, in 1950. Holderer's area of expertise was aerodynamics. According to Space Historian and former NASA publicist Ed Buckbee, Holderer personally brought America's first rocket wind tunnel from Germany and set it up for early testing. At Redstone Arsenal, he worked as a mechanical engineer, designer, and fabricator. He designed the wind tunnel used for Saturn V testing and oversaw the tunnel's construction at the Marshall Space Flight Center. The Saturn V later powered Apollo 11 on its successful Moon landing. Describing the project many years later, Holderer said the historical significance of the project was not felt at the time, but that he "was amazed when [he] heard what they had in mind. "The same wind tunnel is still used by NASA for testing as of 2015. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity.

WW2 Von Braun Rocket Scientist Werner Gengelbach signed page Op Paperclip. Approx 5 x 3 inch piece hand signed. He started his professional career in 1938 after he received a master’s degree in electrical engineering from the Technische Hochschule (institute of Technology) at Darmstadt, Germany. He became employed by the Electrical Institute of the University as an instructor and research assistant. After a year of activity in High Voltage research and post graduate work he became, with the beginning of World War II, engaged in classified research projects of the German Rocket Center at Peenemunde. In 1942 he was invited by Dr. Wernher von Braun to come to Peenemunde to join his team of rocket experts. His initial position at the Center gave him major responsibilities for the testing and launchings of the first completed V-2 missiles. Later, in 1943, he assumed full responsibility for the planning, establishment and operation of an underground production operation of mobile launch stations. In the fall of 1945, he accepted an invitation by the U.S. Government, together with Dr. von Braun and other members of his team, to come to the U.S.A. and continue missile research and development work. Initially, he was employed by the U.S. Army where he played a major role in the preparation and firings of V-2's at White Sands Proving Ground, N.M. In 1949 he transferred to the Air Force and worked as consultant to assist in the master planning and operational establishment of the Holloman-White Sands Missile Test Range. During an eight year period of employment by the Air Force he held a number of high level management positions with major responsibilities for the planning and operation of complex missile RandD and Test facilities as well as the direction of engineering activities. He terminated his employment with the Air Force in 1957 and accepted a management position in the aerospace industry. Two years later he became co-founder and Secretary-Treasurer of Advanced Technology Corporation, an ordnance missile systems company. Following the sale of the company to a major aerospace firm, he returned in 1962 again into Government service when he joined NASA Marshall Space Flight Center at Huntsville, Ala. For a year and a half, he was assigned to Jet Propulsion Laboratory to assure close liaison between the two NASA centres. In 1964 he was appointed NASA Resident Manager at North American Rockwell Corporation. For eight years he was responsible for the on-site management and administration of the 1.4 billion dollar Saturn II contract. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
