03 October 1942 - MISSILE CROSSES A COSMIC THRESHOLD: A new Nazi
'Wunderwaffen,' or 'weapon of wonder,' is fired in a test flight, and
the missile's top 52.5-mile altitude is so high it becomes the first
manmade object to enter outer space. In less than two years Germany will
begin launching thousands of V-2 rockets, mainly against Belgium and the
UK.

The V-2 (German: Vergeltungswaffe 2, lit. 'Vengeance Weapon 2'), with
the technical name Aggregat 4 (A-4), was the world's first long-range
guided ballistic missile. The missile, powered by a liquid-propellant
rocket engine, was developed during the Second World War in Nazi Germany
as a "vengeance weapon" and assigned to attack Allied cities as
retaliation for the Allied bombings of German cities. The V-2 rocket
also became the first artificial object to travel into space by crossing
the K|irm|in line (edge of space) with the vertical launch of MW 18014 on
20 June 1944
