see how that works?

it's like pottery

Why cant we say that both Russia and USA had a huge hand in bringing humanity to space? Why cant we ever just work together as humans instead of always dividing each other with imaginary lines?

Because compromise is for

>first superpower to collapse
Russkies won that race too

USSR won some games in the regular season but the USA won the playoffs.

USA Mother Fucker

Anyone can shoot random shit into space. Landing on a fucking planet with a human is far more difficult.

Dumbass OP

>who won the space race?
space-x.

their booster stages actually land on platforms accurately.

this is true though for sure. The logistics required in landing on another body, then coming back to earth are astronomical and a lot more complex than simply launching shit into orbit.

>race to the moon
B-but we put some shit in orbit

>>first man on the moon - USA

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL SHARTS ACTUALLY BELIEVE THIS

how exciting... they waste resources and space up on fuel so they payload that any of their rockets can hold is minimal. all so they can actually end up spending more than if they just made new rockets each time and re-used re-entry shit.

went to the moon ages ago

never went there again

seems legit

Uh...you do realize you can see the American flag on the moon with a telescope right?

>Imaginary lines

You mean the imaginary line protecting you from being beheaded by Mexican cartels?

haha ok good point bro, but still. I hate how everything is always my team vs your team. I donno, maybe Im just a dreamer

>first person to blah blah
>first person to blah blah
>first person to blah blah

who won?

wow... you can see a flag on the fake moon thats only a projection...
how thrilling

>No I dont really believe that.
but thought I beat the flat earthers to it.

>first person to the goal posts
>Fred

Who won the race?

Fucking this

Russia's only good at sending shit in LEO with their Soyuz but they can't do anything more complex than that, even landing on Venus took them like 11 tries. Meanwhile we landed multiple times on the moon, landed some fucking robots on Mars, shot off probes into the deepest reaches of the galaxy, have a bomb ass space telescope we can see the beginning of the universe with.

I will give props to Russia for getting Gagarin up there that's like a national point of pride for them. The first man in space was a Russian.

Actually we believe we put men on the moon, it's flat too though.

>fake moon

Uh....what?

>this kills the commie shill

Hillary :^)

Its human nature to group with those you find similar. On evolutionary stand-point, it was more advantageous to collect with similars and drive everyone else out. For humans its an "us or them" mentality, and you cannot change that in a brief span of time. It would take generations to do that. Compared to thousands of years ago it has gotten slightly better, so change is possible.

my point is the US defined the finish line as soon as they made a noteworthy accomplishment.

If we were the first to send something into space we would have said US WINS SPACE RACE in 1957

>first person to cross the finish line

Implying that landing on the moon is some kind of finish line. You Americucks are easily impressed. Whoopdeedoo you landed a person on the moon and brought them back.

What have you done since then?

Did you build a self sustaining colony on the moon? Have you started mining the asteroid belt to build a dyson swarm? Did you send a probe into alpha centauri? Did you develop Orion rockets that could go a percent of the speed of light? Did you build self-replicating machines to scour the galaxy? So how can you guys say you won the space race. It's like a retard patting himself on the back because he learned how to solve quadratic equations.

Yeah you won the space race all right.

>first satellite in space

Big whoop. The moon became a satellite by crashing into the fucking earth. Not very complex.

>What have you done since then?

Watched the collapse of the Soviet Union, for starters.

American astronauts go to space now in russian ships and they think they won the space race

Triggered:The Post
The Space Race was a realitive event between the US and Russia. The pinnical of this was putting a man terrestrial body other than Earth, which America did first. That is the argument. What you sperged about has nothing to do with the topic at hand. Has Russia done any of those things? No they didnt.
You have to walk before you run, its steps, so cut your nihilistic bullshit out.

We faked the moon landing so...

Ecclesiastes 4:4

TL:DR Why we can(t) have nice things.

>muhh space taxi

Blame the Jews. They needed our best minds working for the defense of Israel, not furthering our knowledge of space.

>still a country - USA

impliying man has ever been in space

The one that still exists.

We paid the british studios who filmed it at her majesty's request with ft knox gold from the Globalist Fed Vaults. Cant be letting niggers take control of the gold supply when they implode america. Its the same trick (((they))) pulled pre WW with europe by sending it all to America during uncertainty of war. The accursed golden ark is gone from these lands. All thats left is a deluded fan fiction of comic book crooks and cia spooks weaving hollywood sci-fi futurism. Corrupted and perverse.

>The pinnical of this was putting a man terrestrial body other than Earth, which America did first. That is the argument.

Not an argument. That's a god damn shitty place to draw the finish line.

>You have to walk before you run, its steps

They've done literally nothing since then. A charlatan like Elon Musk has filled the vacuum and is using every opportunity he can to generate hype for unprofitable companies.

can you name me 1 thing the egyptian civilisation built of any worth. just one. i'll wait.

you forgot first spacewalk - USSR

...

No one. Both countries wasted billions of not trillions on a dick measuring contest.

sadly there's no drive for that
unless you use something wacky like nuclear pulse propulsion sending stuff to space is insanely expensive

holy crap we get it Ruskies, you're badass. But you gotta give the USA credit too. Don't act like the US isn't the current leader in space.

...

Soviets at least managed to land and take some pictures on a literal death world. You shouldn't laugh when you haven't done better.

Both sides had german scientists, no winners here

>German scientists
Enough of this meme.

Americans achieved first docking of two spacecraft, that's even more impressive

What that?

Egyptians were white, nigger.

Cassini-Huygens

The US would have been equally capable but there's little reason to do so. The Russians did it because they could, and that's cool, but all we really got out of it was that robots die fast on death worlds and it's an ugly hellscape.

Ok, they was disguised italians :D

An open casket cosmonaut funeral.

Funny how all of these people are Russian. Russian's are very smart people which is why they moved to a capitalist system.

Fire up the Film Cameras, and we will win the space race again! We have the
movie crews, the actors, the set and the resources. No country can compete faking
space explorations like the good old USA.

First personal computer, MIR (Victor Glushkov, 1965)
First computer-aided education system in history (Nastavnik), with a clear reference to the current
First superscalar computer (processor microarchitecture capable of executing more than one instruction per clock cycle), Elbrus-1 (Boris Babaian, 1970).

The country that still exists.

Soviets had no relevant German scientists, main guy was Korolev

Why did the soviets copy the space shuttle program and have less than half the success while spending magnitudes more GDP?

WE

>Who won

Soon you will too, burger.

People seem the most butthurt about America being first on the moon, so I'd say we won. The rest of the world better get their shit together or else we'll be first on mars too. I know you guys don't want that, so you better start moving.

Soviet swiped out german labaratories and relocated them to soviet Union with many german scientists ( i have no time for proof)

>1997
lmao

Well, you can't do space habitation research forever, you need to get the hang of reusable manned aircraft two. It was only a copy visually, anyway. Soviet shuttle was objectively better and more capable.

#'Murricastronk

NASA has dominated the solar system, there is not even any credible argument otherwise.

Already memed it

First telemechanical plane

you don't need to prove it, I know, but they had no one of Von Braun's caliber
chief Soviet rocket designers was Sergey Korolev
in any case astronautics are more than just rockets m8
hundreds, thousands of people share the accomplishments
