The Reich Rocket Force supervised German space and missile forces in the years after the Race Invasion. Its first commander was Walter Dornberger. In the 1950s and '60s, it flew routine orbital patrols in Earth orbit and landing missions to the Moon and Mars. In 1965 it sent the Hermann Göring into the asteroid belt. In 1965 it attacked the Race's starships during the brief and disastrous Race-German War of 1965. This had the effect of disrupting all international space travel during this period.
