The dramatic moment when man set foot on another celestial body for the first time was a high point in the history of mankind, a climax to which Hermann Oberth created the foundations and prerequisites. He was the first to resort to the slide rule in connection with the idea of ​​a real space travel and presented numerically elaborate concepts and design proposals. In prophetic clarity, Hermann Oberth describes all the essential elements of today's big rockets, which are often considered by contemporary writers to be inventions of recent years.

I myself owe Hermann Oberth and his work the guiding star of my life. He was the ingenious mentor who, as a young engineering student, gave me the first exposure to the theoretical and practical problems of rocket science and guided my dreamy enthusiasm for exploring the boundless vastness of space into orbits that made their technical realization possible.
