During the Cold War, the space race took place between the US and the USSR.
Both involved rocketry using science captured from the defeated Nazi regime, and the space race was a way for the two superpowers to one-up each other in the eyes of the world. It may also be thought of as a show of force, as space flights were often launched with the same boosters used for nuclear warheads.
