Excellent find, Kiwi on that Nat Geo article.
Once again, another hoax believer claim gets trashed by simple research.

Excellent find, Kiwi on that Nat Geo article. The credit goes to BAUT member JonClarke from Canberra, Australia. www.bautforum.com/members/jonclarke.htmlHe mentioned the article at BAUT in August last year, so I got in touch and he kindly sent me a photocopy. Then I found the original. Now I want to see that Popular Science article, ("Space mans look at Antarctica", 1967 Vol 190.) because I've never found any detail about von Braun's trip. Macapple, do you have the whole article? If so, how big is it and how big is that particular section? Is it not so big that you can post the entire section without infringing copyright, or else could you give us a precis of it? Is Vol. 190 that particular issue of the magazine? Edited to add: Aha, the benefits of a few minutes' Googling: "Space Man's Look at Antarctica," Popular Science, Vol. 190, No. 5, May 1967, pp. 114-116, 200. From this link it sounds as if the article was written by von Braun. Now I really want to see it!
