Question 706: You too?

n the late 1920s, a young Wernher von Braun acquired a copy of Hermann Oberth's book, Die Rakete zu den Planetenräumen (The Rocket into Interplanetary Space). Starting in 1930, he attended the TU Berlin, where he assisted Oberth in liquid-fueled rocket motor tests. Von Braun was working on his creative doctorate when the Nazi Party gained power in Germany. An artillery captain, W. Dornberger arranged an Ordnance Department research grant for von Braun, who from then on worked next to Dornberger's existing solid-fuel rocket test site at Kummersdorf Von Braun's thesis, Construction, Theoretical, and Experimental Solution to the Problem of the Liquid Propellant Rocket (dated 16 April 1934), was kept classified by the German army and was not published until 1960. By the end of 1934, his group had successfully launched two rockets that reached heights of 2.2 and 3.5 km

At the time, Germany was highly interested in American physicist Robert Goddard's research. Before 1939, German scientists occasionally contacted Goddard directly with technical questions. Von Braun used Goddard's plans from various journals and incorporated them into the building of the___________

Following successes at Kummersdorf with the first two _______, von Braun and Walter Riedel began thinking of a much larger rocket in the summer of 1936, based on a projected 25-metric-ton-thrust engine..

And this was __X___

ID X and the blank.

Question 705: She's a lady

The poem The New Colossus" by Emma Lazarus has a place of importance in __X__. 


Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"


ID the "brazen giant of Greece" being referred to and what the subject of the poem is.

Question 704: All Good things come to an end

Question 701: Which Star do they follow?

It is believed the majority of self-reported __X__ claimed the religion for their own amusement, to poke fun at the government, or as a protest against the inclusion of the religion question on the census form.

In England and Wales 390,127 people (almost 0.8%) stated their religion as ___X___ on their 2001 Census forms, surpassing Sikhism, Judaism, and Buddhism, and making it the fourth largest reported religion in the countries. In the 2001 Census 2.6% of the population of Brighton claimed to be ___X__. The percentages of religious affiliations were:

• Christian: 70.0%
• No religion: 14.7%
• Chose not to respond: 7.8%
• Muslim: 3.1%
• Hindu: 2.1%
• __X__ 0.7%

Question 700: So they can stab you to death and then write about it in their journal?

This company came into existence in the year 1884. This multipurpose product made by this company is world renowned solely because of the fact that it is associated with __X__ and derives its name from them. It was originally the sole supplier of the product and regained this position when it acquired the rival supplier of the product in 2005.

In 1909, the mother of the company's founder passed away and he decided to name the company in memory of her. The company started using __Y__ in their products in the year 1921 and as a result, the name of the company was altered to accommodate this inclusion.

Though this product was originally created to serve the requirements of __X__, it is widely used by the rest of the world, simply because it's so handy and compact.


It is even part of the standard equipment used by NASA astronauts.

Id X, Y, the product and give me the name of the company.
