Ask an Expert on Facebook Live: V-1: The Nazi “Buzz-Bomb”

In this week’s Ask an Expert Live, space history curator Michael Neufeld will discuss the Luftwaffe’s V-1, the world’s first operational cruise missile. Allied observers called it the “buzz bomb” for its noisy pulsejet engine. The Nazi Propaganda Ministry dubbed it Vengeance Weapon No. 1, a “wonder weapon” to change the course of the war. However, it was far from that in its actual use.
