NASA Requests Help With Von Braun's Notes
DynaSoar writes "NASA is soliciting ideas from the public on how best to catalog and digitize the collected notes of Wernher von Braun. 'We're looking for creative ways to get it out to the public,' said project manager Jason Crusan. 'We don't always do the best with putting out large sets of data like this.' The PDF notes are those of rocket scientist Wernher von Braun, the first director of NASA's Marshall Spaceflight Center in Huntsville, Alabama and are typed with copious handwritten notes in the margin. According to the official request for information, NASA needs ideas on what format to use (PDF), how to index the notes, and how to create a useful database. The unique nature and historical value of the data, literally discovered in boxes six months ago, is what motivated NASA to ask the public for ideas."
But the USA did also a deal with the Japanese and covered up Unit 731 deeds to become the sole owner of this Biological Warfare knowledge.

some might call it a pact!
Mr. H. Oberth said to me that he was satisfied when WvB died (of cancer) before him.
An infinite number of monkeys with an infinite number of typewriters typing for eternity will surely reproduce the works of Von Braun. Or is there a deadline...
