It's the New Year of 2026! 

Let us embrace empathy, learning and benevolent mindsets more than ever. It's always up to us to ensure that the light of human understanding and intellectualism does not die out during dark ages. 

Peace be with us all!

November 2025 marks the 80th anniversary of the start of the Nuremberg trials, the international and formal effort to bring the war criminals of the Nazi party to justice following the end of the Second World War. In remembrance, History Obscura presents the story of one of the most eminent members of the party who was NOT required to testify in one of the United States' or West Germany's courts: Wernher von Braun.
