On Thursday, 9 November 2023, UNU-WIDER and the African Cities Research Consortium (ACRC) welcome Dr. Arkebe Oqubay, former Senior Minister and Special Adviser to Ethiopia's Prime Minister and former mayor of Addis Ababa, to present 'Sustainable cities and structural transformation in Africa in the twenty-first century' at Helsinki City Hall.
It was already well-known that in World War I, the Germans developed long-range artillery and bombed Paris from the German lines. As a result, the Treaty of Versailles banned the future development of the German heavy artillery, including heavy machine guns. Howver, the treaty did not salt is about rockets, which resulted in the development of "V” weapons, or "vengenace weapons" with the technique of German missiles. The "V" was short for "Vergeltungswaffen", roughly translated "vengenace weapons". They had two main types: V-1 and V-2. The V-1 was a cruise missile that employed a gasoline-powered pulse-jet engine, could produce a thrust of about 1,100 pounds. The V-1 was originally called the Fieseler Fi-103, and nickname „Höllenbund = Hellhound”. V-1 test flights began in 1941 over the Peenemunde range. The V-2 was deviloped at the same time, the technical name is Aggregat-4 (A-4), and was the world's first long-range controlled ballistic missile. The first test flight of a V-2 rocket was carried out on October 3, 1942. The rocket reached 85 kilometers, flew for 296 seconds and fell into the Baltic Sea after 190 kilometers. The V-2 rocket also became the first artificial object to travel into space by crossing the Kármán line (edge of space) with the vertical launch of MW-18014 test rocket on 20 June 1944. Development of the rocket is associated with the first civilian employee of the German missile research facility, the name Wernher von Braun aircraft engineer. He was the one who moved to the United States in 1945 after occupying base of Peenemunde by Allied Troops, and in the mid-1960s developed the Saturn V super-seavy launcher from the V-2 rocket at the Apollo program for the human discoverry of the Moon. The rocket had three stages, and was powered by liquid fuel, flown between 1967-1973, it was used for nine crewed flights to the Moon, and to launch Skylab, the first American space station. Theresore, the base of Peenemunde is also a referendum to the "cradle of modern space travel".
Between August 1943 and March 1945, the US Air Force and the Royal Air Force made a series of bombings in the framework of Hydra (otherwise: Operation Crossbow). As a result of the attacks, the Germans had the rocket manufacturing to underground plants and moving their experimental work to Poland and Austria. The V-1 rocket was already manufactured near Kassel, and one of the venues of V-2 production was in the abandoned gypsum mine of the southern Harz Mountains near Nordhausen. This mine was enormous enough for a 1-mile of extensive facilities to be recruited from Buchenwald's concentration camp at the end of August 1943. The secret name of the completed underground factory and sub-camp became "Dora". Officials estimate that from 1943 until 1945, 60,000 prisoners worked in these factories. Of these, 20,000 had died from various causes including starvation, fatigue and execution. The Wehrmacht and SS fired about 3200 rockets at English and other Western European cities under the term „Vengeance Weapon 2 (V-2)”.
The model you can see here, was created based on blueprints for the large-scale series (Baurehie B) from 1944. The colour including the picture of a naked woman sitting in the crescent moon, follows the paintwork of the original prototype 4 (Baurehie A).

Development of Final Design with CAD Prototype- The product has the ability to specifically tailor its design to different users’ interests: e.g. users who loves music could buy a MP3 incorporated bracelet. The fact that it is attachable and interchangeable will mean it will enhance their experience and ensure the product will not be obsolescent but trendy and new. The simplistic approach to the design means it is easy to use and helps many users with their needs to keep fit and track their activities throughout the day. It incorporates the element of sport into a watch and provides that extra motivation to do more exercise and be more active. The curved flexible glass screen is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably on the users wrist. It is designed to monitor exercise patterns and heart rate with a built in sensor and this helps to improve the overall performance of the product, making the watch multi-functional. I therefore had to decide how to combine together these different aspects and decide on how to create one final idea.
