	Thomas Mittelwerk - Lostpedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		Thomas Werner Mittelwerk, was the President and Chief Technologist of the Hanso Foundation.
		Through further investigation, she discovered how Mittelwerk was now working in corrupt areas, such as organ harvesting, and how he was planning to test a deadly virus on villagers in Sri Lanka.
		Mittelwerk was a large underground facility built by the Nazis that was staffed with prisoners transferred from concentration camps.

	V2ROCKET.COM - Mittelwerk / DORA
		The Mittelwerk V-2 factory produced some 4,575 V-2s between August, 1944 and March, 1945—the period in which these rockets were headed for firing batterys (as opposed, earlier on, to development testing).
		The Mittelwerk tunnel system consisted of two parallel main tunnels, A and B, each roughly 6,200 ft. (1.17 mi.) long, bent in a shallow “S” curve, and connected at various points by a regular series of cross tunnels—like the rungs of a ladder.
		Work had stopped at Mittelwerk on April 10, 1945, but the assembly line was left with its electric power and ventilation systems still running, as if the former occupants had gone out for lunch, and would return after a while.

	Subterranea Britannica: Sites: Nordhausen - Mittelwerk V2 assembly plant and Dora concentration camp
		The mine had opened in 1917 and having been abandoned it was commandeered by the Wehrmacht in 1936 for the storage of fuel and poison gas; by mid 1943, the complex was the largest fuel and oil depot in Germany
		The Mittelwerk facility consisted of the two main parallel tunnels, A and B, each approximately 6,200 ft. in length The tunnels ran in a shallow 'S' shaped curve and were connected by a series of 46 cross galleries, each about 500 feet long spaced at regular intervals.
		Labour on the Mittelwerk assembly lines included both detainees, German workers and supervisors, in the ratio of about two prisoners to one worker.

		Many of the rocket scientists who created the Saturn V rocket, which propelled America to the moon, had come from Germany, where the men had developed the V-2 rocket that was dropped on Britain during World War II.
		They had been working for the Nazi government in the secret, underground Mittelwerk rocket factory.
		Some history buffs know that much, but Britton says the shocking discovery was that the plant had been run by "slaves," who were routinely executed.

	Mittelwerk/Dora (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		The V-2 development complex at Peenemünde on the Baltic coast was bombed in August 1943 and early 1944, so production was moved to the tunnels in the Kohnstein hill.
		Later a camp was built adjacent to the tunnel entrances on the southern side of the Kohnstein; this was code-named "Dora" (also called "Mittelbau").
		By 11 April 1945, when the U.S. Army 3rd Armored Division overran the complex, the Mittelwerk had produced over 13,000 V-1 and V-2 rockets, at the expense of the lives of some 20,000 of the forced laborers.

		Mittelwerk likes to present himself as some sort of forward-thinking, eco-friendly guy (check out his TV ads), but the actions of the Foundation tell another story.
		I hid a mic in a pepper shaker and recorded a conversation between Mittelwerk and a crony of his.
		Mittelwerk got away again, this time on the deck of his “special” ship – named The Helgus Antonius.

	Peenemünde and Los Alamos -- two studies
		The conversion from mine to missile-production facility was a harsh and dirty task, performed under intense pressure, and using forced labor from a mixture of criminals, homosexuals, prisoners of war and political prisoners.
		Von Braun described the conditions of the labor force at Mittelwerk as "horrible;" Albert Speer used the term "barbarous;" and Arthur Rudolph calls the treatment of prisoners "primitive" and "awful." Prisoners were literally worked to death or exposed to such unsanitary conditions that they died of disease.
		Rudolph, and others at Mittelwerk, were frequently reminded that they too could join the forced labor teams if they did not fully cooperate with the SS authorities.

	M.E.A. - From Peenemünde to the Moon,rocket history
		About 1000 of these missiles were fired at the cities of London and Norwich, while about 2000 more were fired at targets on the European continent.
		Many missiles were still in the pipeline to the front, or had been rejected by the troops because of problems and damage.
		The Russians reactivated the Mittelwerk facility and assembled V-2's at that location, but relocated this activity soon to an area near Moscow.

	History of Rocketry
		Allied forces ultimately captured the Mittelwerk facility intact, with partially completed missiles still on the assembly line and in various states of fabrication in warehouses.
		About 5,000 people involved in the German rocket industry had already fled the Mittelwerk area with von Braun before the end of the war, and yet another 1,000 had fled the area after the Soviets assumed jurisdiction.
		Grottrup stayed at the Mittelwerk plant until October, 1946 when he and about 200 German associates were relocated without advanced notice to Russia.

		Quantity production of the V2 at Mittelwerk was accomplished with unpaid slave labour under the brutal rule of the SS.
		That, as a consequence of Nazi slave-labour, the desperate war situation, and the state of current technology, no significant automation was applied to its manufacture.
		In February 1945 the underground Mittelwerk V2 factory delivered 800 ready-to-launch V2s; after the war U.S. intelligence expert T. Wright estimated that at full production, unconstrained by wartime shortages, the Mittelwerk plant could have produced 900 to 1000 V2s per month.

		The third launch on October 3, 1942, was a complete success reaching an altitude of 50 miles and a range of 120 miles.
		Research continued at Peenemunde, but production was removed to Mittelwerk after an Allied bombing of Peenemunde on August 17, 1943.
		The first use of the V-2 in war was on September 6, 1944, when two missiles were launched toward Paris.

		Two electric motors spin in the tub at a rate varying from 450 to 750 rpm to compensate for thrust imbalance when the clustered motors fire.
		While the Soviet Union suffered somewhat of an embarrassment as U.S. forces removed the lion's share of German V-2 hardware from the Mittelwerk plant literally under their noses, the Soviets did not conclude World War II empty handed.
		Most importantly, the Soviet Union already possessed its own experts in rocketry, an equation that was lacking in the U.S. These scientists included A.G. Kostikov, inventor of the World War II Katyusha rocket, and Sergei P. Korolev, considered to be the father of modern Soviet rocketry.

	Chapter XVII: Zone and Sector
		The grand prize target, of course, was the Mittelwerk, the V-2 plant at Nordhausen; but to the scientific and technical specialists, documents, patent records, optical devices, high pressure pumps, gear grinders, tire cord twisters, and supersonic wind tunnels were often almost as sensational.
		What use might be made of these specialists, aside from their possibly being able to contribute something to the war against Japan, was uncertain, and one of the most compelling arguments for bringing them to the United States seemed at the time to be simply to put them beyond the reach of Soviet recruiters.
		Had the leaders of the rocket group, Professor Wernher von Braun and Gen. Walter Dornberger, not decided for themselves that in the long run the United States was the best place to carry on their work and had they not held their colleagues together, OVERCAST might have come to nothing.

		The SS also were in total control over the concentration camps, and to supply the Mittelwerk with a labour force the SS took POW's from Buchenwald, a network of concentration camps.
		Wernher von Braun, although not directly involved with the Mittelwerk, almost certainly knew what was going on and of the use of slave labour.
		Apart from his brother, Magnus, who was a manager at a Nordhausen plant, he visited the Mittelwerk factory and also attended meetings where slave labour was discussed.

		The raid missed many key facilities, but it prompted the SS to order that the production side of the A-4 programme be moved to an underground facility in central Germany that became known as Mittelwerk.
		The V-2 campaign was a last desperate attempt by the Nazi leadership to turn the course of the war.
		The Russians, meanwhile, reactivated Mittelwerk with the help of former staff, many of whom had remained in the surrounding area.

		Following the Allied bombing of Peenemunde on August 17, 1943 V-2 production was relocated to an underground facility at Mittelwerk, near Nordhausen in the Harz Mountains.
		The Mittelwerk site consolidated all of the production efforts previously carried out at Peenemunde, and eventually became the sole location for V-2 production.
		A remarkable 900 V-2 missiles per month were being produced at the Mittelwerk plant by the close of the war.

	Remembering Wernher von Braun's German Rocket Team
		V-2 work later was also done at Mittelwerk at the foot of the Harz mountains in central Germany.
		The Department of Justice determined he was culpable for the condition of slave laborers at Mittelwerk; Rudolph, who died in Germany, said the S.S. was responsible, not him.
		The accounts were fueled in part by concentration camp survivors angry that the scientist had become a hero in the United States.

	The Heinkel He-162 Volksjaeger
		In the meantime, an enormous effort was begun to set up a network of suppliers of parts and subassemblies, dispersed all over the Reich.
		Final assembly was to be at the Heinkel plant in Marienhe, the Junkers plant at Bernberg, and in the infamous SS underground slave-labor factory near Nordhausen in the Harz Mountains, known as "Mittelwerk (Central Works)".
		In essence, the He-162 was being put into mass production even before the first example had flown.

		Due to the size of the project, it was decided to create a state monopoly under the name of Mittelwerk AG for the development of the V2.
		At the end of August, 1943, the first skilled prisoners arrived from Buchenwald to form a new subcamp with the undercover name of "Dora".
		All of the Mittelwerk's physical installations were referred to as the "Mittelbau."

	Excerpts from "Power to Explore"
		The most important V-2 production sites were the central plants, called Mittelwerk, in the southern Harz Mountains near Nordhausen, where an abandoned gypsum mine provided an underground cavern large enough to house extensive facilities in secrecy.
		Foreign workers under the supervision of skilled German technicians assumed an increasing burden; at Mittelwerk, ninety percent of the 10,000 laborers were non-Germans.18
		He admitted that he had indeed visited Mittelwerk on several occasions, summoned there in response to attempts by Mittelwerk management to hasten the V-2 into production.

		In operation Crossbow and Overcast, another 494 Nazi scientists and engineers were brought into the U.S. to work in weapons development and research.
		Arthur Rudolph, who joined the Nazi Party in 1931, before Hitler even came to power was Director of the Mittelwerk subterranian rocket factory, also called "Danete's Inferno," with good reason, and was there from 1943 to 1945 where 52,000 prisoners turned out 6,000 V-2 rockets.
		Rudolph's prisoners were used as slave labor, forced to work 72 hours a week and fed only 1,100 calories a day.

		Zu Lebzeiten hatte von Braun beteuert, bei seinen Inspektionen der unterirdischen Fabrik Mittelwerk keinen einzigen Toten gesehen zu haben.
		Mit dem für die Produktion gebauten angrenzenden Konzentrationslager und der Zwangsarbeit habe er nichts zu tun gehabt, sagte er bei Nachkriegsprozessen aus.
