Overview:
Deep beneath a mountain in central Germany,
a team of under water explorers dive the ruins of a secret Nazi
missile factory. While held captive inside these stone walls the
Nazis put their prisoners to work building V-2 rockets. The technology
developed by Dr. Werner von Braun, and brought to fruition by the
prisoners of the Dora-Mittelbau Forced Labour Camp, would eventually
take man into the far reaches of space.
