The World's First Manned Rocket Launch - Operation Natter
On March 1, 1945, the world's first manned rocket, the revolutionary Bachem Ba-349 "Natter," was launched near Stetten am Kalten Markt. It was the first rocket to use booster rockets for launch assistance, was steered via manually operated jet rudders, and featured a beam-guided system for connecting to bomber formations. Its armament also included rockets fired from the nose of the fuselage. In this unique documentary, Horst Lommel presents facts and rare photographs; eyewitnesses recount the dramatic events of the Natter's testing, which also paved the way for manned spaceflight.
It was the first rocket to use booster rockets for launch assistance, was steered by manually operated jet rudders, and featured a beam-guided system for approaching bomber formations.
