The life and work of Wernher von Braun, the father of modern space flight, is reviewed, focusing on his achievements and his creationist world view. A staunch supporter of creationism, he openly made his views known about his conclusion that the universe is clearly designed by an all-powerful God and that the creationist world view should be taught in the schools alongside the evolutionary world view. His life shows evolutionists that creationism is an entirely adequate explanation for the reality around us, and that a theistic world view, where God is not only the Creator but also Sustainer, is a defensible position.
