Please remember that the purpose of your education is not to give you lots of facts, but to teach you how to find the information you need when you need it.

The person who knows lots of "facts" but has no idea where they came from or how to tell whether they are correct or not is a LOSER.

The person with a head less full of "facts" but with a clear knowledge of how to find facts and verify their accuracy is a WINNER!

So learn to use the internet and also the library (often called the "media center" nowadays) to find the facts you need. Try an internet search on "rockets" and also on "history of rockets."

Look for biographical information on Hermann Oberth, Robert Goddard, and Werner von Braun, as well as on the Berlin Rocket Society.

The coolest source of all is the library (media center). The librarian (media specialist) can show you how to find the information you need.

Good luck.

For general information like that, I always go to www.wikipedia.org and type the subject in the search window.
