En una tranquila tarde de otoño de 1882, William Trenchard está sentado fumando su pipa en el jardín de su confortable casa familiar. Cuando el crujido de la puerta del jardín anuncia la llegada de un extraño inesperado, se siente desconcertado pero no alarmado. No puede saber la destrucción que este hombre causará en todo lo que más aprecia. 'Hochspannung! Robert Goddard ist zu Recht als schreibender Hitchcock bezeichnet worden.' (Brigitte).

Robert Hutchings Goddard was an American physicist, inventor, and engineer credited with creating and building the world's first liquid-fueled rocket, which was successfully launched on March 16, 1926. By 1915 his pioneering work had dramatically improved the efficiency of the solid-fueled rocket, signaling the era of the modern rocket and innovation. He and his team launched 34 rockets between 1926 and 1941, achieving altitudes as high as 2.6 km (1.6 mi) and speeds as fast as 885 km/h (550 mph).
