Materials subject to high temperatures suspended above heat source . Thermocouple and electrical wires visible

Testing materials in high temperature conditions,Karlshagen, Germany. Briquettes of material in shallow container above high temperature heat source. The temperature seems to increase and cause test materials to move about in the container until they start melting. Electric conductor and thermocouple are seen amongst the test materials.

First practical attempts to use rockets for propulsion.

The German Ente (duck), world’s first rocket-powered airplane. Designed by Alexander Lippisch as a sailplane, it was purchased by Fritz von Opel who equipped it with rockets. It is seen with Opel painted on its fuselage, in its first rocket-powered flight on June 11, 1928 (flown by Fritz Stamer). In a slate, Adolf Hitler is quoted to the effect that : One cannot achieve what one cannot first imagine. A slate refers to the inadquate resources and consequent difficulties of early experimenters. Men help Prince Michalikais, with his "invention", in New York, where he attempts to propel himself with rockets while on ice skates. He wears a board on his back equipped with rockets. On first attempt, the rockets burn without propelling him and associates throw snow on his back to extinguish any fire. On next attempt, rockets fire but he loses his balance and falls.
