On 11 July 1944, a spellbound Joseph Goebbels had watched colour film intended to be used in newsreels of V-2s being prepared and launched and excitedly declared that "If we could only show this film in every cinema in Germany, I wouldn't have to make another speech, or write another word!"
Hopefully that film survived the war and I'll get to see it one of these days; but this public information film made twenty years later about Britain's short-lived contribution to the Space Race poignantly evokes a time long gone when nobody would then have worried about the carbon footprint left by the rocket launches we see based in Woomera and today even the Australian prime minister is being forced to consider the consequences of global warming as the bush blazes.
