Perhaps the Disney studios could make an animation

<<Rochus Misch (29 July 1917 – 5 September 2013) was a German Oberscharführer (senior squad leader) in the 1st SS Panzer Division Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler during World War II. He served as a courier, bodyguard and telephone operator for German leader Adolf Hitler from 1940 to 1945. He was the last remaining survivor among the occupants of the Führerbunker in the final days of the war in Europe.
Misch was born in Alt-Schalkowitz near Oppeln in the Province of Silesia. His father, a construction worker, died of wounds sustained in World War I. His widowed mother died of pneumonia when he was three, and he grew up with his grandparents. He worked as a painter. Misch married his wife Gerda on New Year's Eve, 1942. They had a daughter, Brigitta Jacob-Engelken, who worked as an architect and supported Jewish causes. After he returned from the Soviet Union, Brigitta learned from her maternal grandmother that Brigitta's mother was Jewish, making Brigitta Jewish as well (according to Jewish tradition). Misch refused to acknowledge it.
As a junior member of Hitler's permanent bodyguard, Misch travelled with Hitler throughout the war. On 16 January 1945, following the Wehrmacht's defeat in the Battle of the Bulge, Misch and the rest of Hitler's personal staff moved into the Führerbunker in Berlin. He did not leave it for any significant period of time until the war ended in May 1945. Misch handled all of the direct communication from the bunker. Misch was loyal to Hitler to the end, saying "
He was a wonderful boss".
Hitler committed suicide on 30 April. Misch witnessed the discovery of the bodies of Hitler and Eva Braun, and was present (in the bunker complex) during the time when Joseph Goebbels and his wife Magda poisoned their six young children and committed suicide on 1 May 1945. Misch fled the bunker on 2 May only hours before the Red Army seized it but was captured shortly thereafter. Misch was brought to the Lubyanka Prison in Moscow, where he was tortured in an attempt to extract information regarding Hitler's exact fate. Misch spent nine years in Soviet forced labour camps.
After his release from captivity in 1953, Misch returned to Berlin, arriving home on New Year's Eve 1953, where he lived two miles from the Führerbunker. He finally obtained credit backed by wealthy German philanthropists to buy out a painting and wallpaper business. He ran this modest business successfully, and during the early Allied occupation of Berlin also became involved in the making of peanut butter for American troops. His memoir in German, Der letzte Zeuge (The Last Witness), was published in 2008. Misch lived in Berlin in the same house he moved into when he was released by the Soviets. Misch died in Berlin on 5 September 2013 at the age of 96.>>

Well that's an amazing animation on space.
Here's a (sort of) complimentary video on time: [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XkV6IpV2Y0[/url]
