This had importance because it meant that the US would actually try to reach space and rival the USSR. This meant that the stakes would be higher for the space race.]]> 2022-04-07 13:09:34 UTC https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134548686 25walterg https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134551411 It was important because it meant that the US was joining the space race in full force. It also meant that the US was actually going to try to get a man to space.  This means that there would be high stakes for the US and USSR to show who has the best technology.  It has to do with Project Apollo because the project is about trying to get a man on the moon.]]> 2022-04-07 13:11:06 UTC https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134551411 25walterg https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134567384 The US won the space race against the USSR.  The US won it because they managed to get people on the moon and back down to earth safely. Some reasons they were able to get the rocket up to space and back faster was mainly money. The US had a bigger budget than the USSR. The USSR wasn't able to spend as much money on space technology because they were spending so much into military.]]> 2022-04-07 13:19:22 UTC https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134567384 25walterg https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134572612 The competitions changed the cold war.  First, the competition changed the cold war and it raised the tensions even more.  Second, the space race made people more nationalist for their country.  Third, this competition showed to other nations that one nation had better technology than the other.]]> 2022-04-07 13:22:03 UTC https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134572612 25walterg https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134576076 A comparison of technology made from the impact of the space race.  First, space technology is a lot faster, more efficient, and safer.  Second, There have been major improvements to satellites so that they can have many uses.  Lastly, there are unmanned things like sputnik being put into space called rovers.]]> 2022-04-07 13:23:51 UTC https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134576076 25walterg https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134589356 One way that the space race has changed after the cold war is that there is less competition and lower stakes.  Another way it has changed is that China has joined the space race.  Lastly, the goals for the space race have changed.]]> 2022-04-07 13:30:32 UTC https://padlet.com/25walterg/q746mbisjkh1v9dr/wish/2134589356
