Science with a Vengeance: How the Military Created the Us Space Sciences After World War II - Springer Study Edition 1st Ed. 1992. Corr. 2nd Printing 1993 edition

The exploration of the upper atmosphere was given a jump start in the United States by German V-2 rockets - Hitler's 'vengeance weapon' - captured at the end of World War II. The science performed with these missiles was largely determined by the missile itself, such as learning more about the medium through which a ballistic missile travels.
