	HISTORY OF SIEMENS AG
		The first Siemens company, Telegraphen-Bau-Anstalt Von Siemens and Halske ("Telegraph Construction Firm of Siemens and Halske"), was founded in Berlin on Oct. 1, 1847, by Werner Siemens (1816-92), his cousin Johann Georg Siemens (1805-79), and Johann Georg Halske (1814-90); its purpose was to build telegraph installations and other electrical equipment.
		In 1903 Siemens and Halske transferred its power-engineering activities to a new company, Siemens-Schuckertwerke GmbH (having absorbed a Nürnberg firm, Schuckert and Co.); from 1919 on, the two companies were usually chaired by the same officer, always a member of the Siemens family.
		At war's end, Hermann Von Siemens (1885-1986), the head of the group, was briefly interned (1946-48), and Siemens officials were charged with recruiting and employing slave labour from captive nations and associating in the construction and operation of the death camp at Auschwitz and the concentration camp at Buchenwald.

		• In 1840, the British scientist, James Prescott Joule, and the German scientist, Hermann von Helmholtz, demonstrated that electric circuits obey the law of the conservation of energy and that electricity is a form of energy.
		Then Von Braun, still working under Oberth, developed the first intercontinental ballistic missile in the world: the German V2 rocket which was used to bombard Britain in the closing months of the Second World War.
		Objections were raised, first at the presence of some of Von Braun's original team who were still alive (one was stripped of his American citizenship and deported back to Germany, nearly 40 years after he had been invited to America by the US government), and then against the fact that there were no Nonwhite astronauts.
