The rocket V-2 from the times of World War II became a symbol of space technology in the 1950s. The name V-2 Schneider comes from David Bowie 's 1977 composition, named after a man who had a great influence on his music. The rocket is a familiar form with hints of a lava lamp with its fascinating light, but modified for a modern home. This simplified missile model symbolizes the historic legacy of our generation from World War II.
