The development of technology brought up fear of falling behind one another. The two countries scared each other into the space race.
2.The landing of a person on the moon was one of the longest lasting competitions between these two countries. The longer the cold war stretched on the competitiveness just kept building between the two.
3.The drive to prove that their countries were more advanced and skilled than the other. They wanted to prove to smaller and weaker countries that they were superior.]]> 2022-04-06 17:09:02 UTC https://padlet.com/25ellingerm/wdbe7871fc5juhd5/wish/2133060664 3 comparisons made in technology in the present to the impact made by the space race 25ellingerm https://padlet.com/25ellingerm/wdbe7871fc5juhd5/wish/2133064259 1. Employment we see today can be thanked by the impact of the cold war where now we have Astronauts that would not have existed if there was no space race.
2. Space technology is used for other things like geography. Science today can thank the cold war for showing them what the exterior of the world looked like.
3. Inventions from the space race have become beneficial to many nasa scientists.]]> 2022-04-06 17:10:56 UTC https://padlet.com/25ellingerm/wdbe7871fc5juhd5/wish/2133064259
