UFOs are not extraterrestial, but German aircraft, invented at the end of World War II: This myth has become popular long before the “Iron Sky” movie series. Gerhard Wiechmann has delved into the origin of this media phantom and discovered things unexpected. The story of “Nazi-UFOs” is a very German one, strongly pushed forward in post-war Western Germany. And even the new German army contributed to legitimise the myth. An exciting story about the creation of fake news in the pre-internet era!
Gerhard Wiechmann ist als freier Historiker tätig und habilitiert sich zur Zeit an der Carl-von-Ossietzky-Universität Oldenburg. Er arbeitet u.a. zu militärhistorischen Themen und zur Geschichte der Populärkultur.
