Quote: To be honest, it sounds like more of a mockumentary thing than anything else. I don't think Yugoslavia ever had a space program... But in that case, it's a very good fake indeed. And if it is actually true, then that would be pretty funny as well.
This is of course a mockumentary made in,IIRC,Slovenia.
But there was indeed a secret underground airbase called Željava,it hosted MiGs-21 and could endure even repeated hits by A-bombs. It was abandoned and dynamited in 1992. Herman Potočnik was also a real figure who wrote about space exploration in the 19th and early 20th century. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%BDeljava_Air_Base http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herman_Poto%C4%8Dnik
I had seen this awhile ago on Facebook and shared it around, I should have guessed from the tone, but I just wanted to believe it was true
