Space Competition Between the United States and Soviet Russia

The satellite is a larger satellite than the satellite as it carries a unique payload - a live dog named Lycra. The success of this mission proves that organisms can survive the power of microgravity. Later, the satellite named Luna II became the first satellite to land on the moon. After that, its successor, Luna III, went around the moon and photographed the far end of the invisible moon from the earth. Another very important work was the first manned spacecraft Orient (launch day of Sputnik) launched on April 12, 1961.

In 1957, the Soviet Union launched an inconspicuous sphere in the orbit of the Earth. Satellites had traveled around the earth for the first time in history, and unprecedented space competition and arms race between the Soviet Union and the United States. The United States established the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to guide the United States to the forefront of space travel. In 1961, President John F. Kennedy promised the United States to send men to the moon by the end of the decade. In July 1969, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration completed this legacy when Neil Armstrong got into the moon and announced the historical phrase "a small step toward humanity, a great leap of mankind". Today, space travel, like other kinds of adventures, is part of our history. Today, astronauts stay in space for several weeks to several months with astronauts from other countries. Failure is not an option to tell the stories of men and women behind the space program - men and women of mission control

One of the biggest reasons for starting the program was the competition between the US and the Soviet Union in space exploration. In 1961 and during the Cold War, the Soviet Union was the first country to send people to space in orbit flight, the Soviet astronaut Yuri Gagarin. After the great achievement of the Soviet Union many Americans believed that the United States must win the competition against the Soviet Union. On July 20, 1969, when Neil Armstrong and Buzzarburgh landed on the moon and returned to the earth safely, the goal was ultimately achieved during the mission of Apollo 11. Between 1969 and 1972, the moon made six successful landings. In these flights, twelve astronauts walked over the moon and collected approximately 382 kilograms of rocks, sand, and many other samples to study the geological features of the moon. The plan ended in Apollo 17 in 1974.

Space exploration is often used as a government agency competition for geopolitical confrontation such as Cold War. The early era of space exploration was promoted by "space competition" between the Soviet Union and the United States. On October 4, 1957, the first artifact was put into the Earth orbit, Sputnik 1 of the Soviet Union and July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 of the United States first landed on the moon. These things are usually used as an initial stage. Landmark The space program of the Soviet Union has achieved many first milestones that began on March 18, 1965, including the first orbit of 1957, the first human space flight of 1961 (Yusuga Garin in the east first place) Did. The second space walk (Alexei Leonov), the first automatic landing to another celestial body in 1966, and the first space station (Salyut 1) in 1971 were launched.
