at first the V1s were destroyed (or were attempted to be destroyed) using supermarine spitfires, hawker hurricanes, and anti aircraft guns, later on in the war the British used hawker tempests and hawker typhoons which were much faster and could catch up with the V1
Usually shot down by AA (Anti-Aircraft) fire when they reached the coastline. Other times, planes (most noteably, the Spitfire and the DH-Mosquito) were sent as interceptors, and simply destroyed the rockets with machinegun fire.
The latter was not always foolproof, however - when the rockets exploded, damage was often done to the aircraft, sometimes enough to bring it down. In addition, the bombs gave off blinding light when they were detonated, causing temporary blindness in pilots.
The final way V1's were brought down was by barrage balloons (balloons that were rigged with explosives - detonated on contact). They were tethered in the English Channel and, theorectically, should've destroyed the rockets when they flew past. Unfortunately, the wingtips of the V1 were equipped with cable cutters, and could slice right through the tethering cables without detonating the balloons. Only 300 rockets were brought down by barrage balloons (as opposed to 2,500 downed by intercepting aircraft).
More InformationIt is important to understand that the V-1 was not a rocket at all. In modern terms, the V-1 operated much like a cruise missile, flying level and relatively slowly. The V-1 was powered by a "pulse jet" engine; the distinctive sound of its exhaust gave the V-1 its nickname "buzz bomb."
One other method sometimes used to defeat a V-1 was called "tipping." A pilot in a fast fighter, such as a Spitfire or a P-51, could catch up with a V-1, slide a wingtip under the flying bomb's wing, and literally tip it over, causing it to fly off course and into the ground -- or into the sea.
Chelmno was destroyed by the Nazis when the Soviet Army approached, and there was nobody left to liberate there. Treblinka and Belzec were also destroyed by the Nazis. (In the case of Treblinka and Belzec the Nazis even tried to turn the site into agricultural land). Sobibor was destroyed after a rebellion by the inmates. The Nazis also blew up key installations at Auschwitz-Birkenau as the Soviet Army approached.
US merchant vessels trying to ferry supplies to Britain across the Atlantic Ocean, and Germany's submarines trying to sink them before they reached their distination. That was the "Battle of the Atlantic."
Britain had social mobility, which encouraged people to work hard.
Britain had lots of coal and iron available
Before 1775, Great Britain sent its convicts to parts of North America and the West Indies.
No she didn't win. She reached the semi final before being eliminated.

The Rockets franchise began play in 1967 as the San Diego Rockets. They moved to Houston in 1971.

Gladiator Beasts have to fulfill two criteria before they can use their 'tag in' effect. The battle must have reached the Damage Step (so they cannot trigger if the attack target was destroyed before that) and the Gladiator Beast monster must survive the battle.
they have a better engine than before
The Soviet Sputnik 1. launched October 4, 1957, was the first satellite to orbit the earth. Many other rockets reached space before that, but they were all suborbital military flights.

Airplanes were invented by the Wright Brothers.
No there were many rockets launched into space before the Apollo program.The first rockets that went into space were German made V2 rockets from the Second World War.
