You had to know it was coming: an episode about the era when the Rocket City started making rockets. Rather than a same-old discussion on who designed and flew the rockets, I instead wanted to focus on how the space race changed Huntsville as a city and some of the "by-products" of the population (and rocket) booms. Join me for a discussion of archaeology, architecture, awful traffic, an attempted amusement park, and absolutely no mentions of that German guy they named the civic center after.
