I was wondering what people in this forum think about the possibilities of German science in an axis-victory TL. They're often presented as very high-tech by modern pop culture but we know that's not really true at all. Nevertheless they did have some big breakthroughs like ballistic missiles and stealth bombers. I was wondering what you guys would say is the potential for big scientific breakthroughs in a Third Reich that lasts more than 12 years. Specifically, how likely do you think the Nazis are to discover the following technologies, and when?:

1. Nuclear weapons.

2. Space travel (whether launching a missile into outer space, or satellite, or a manned mission, or a moon landing).

3. Jet engine.
