While von Braun never met Korolev, those interested in the prehistory of the RLV will be interested one one person he did meet.
Eugen Sanger's son wrote to me that Werner von Braun had 2 opportunities to meet his father, Once was during the 3rd Reich, when von B. requested a solution to ignition problems that had been developed by the Sanger team.
More than a decade after he had found a democratic employer, von B. again met Sanger. Both men much respected each other's work.
Good luck, VentureStar, Skylon, Kistler, Hope-X !
