When Alexi Leonov became the first man to walk in space, it was another first for the Soviet Uniion who had already sent up the first satellite, man and woman into space. They were trying to show that the communist system was superrior to the American capitalistic system. While they may have been first at many things, the United States did it better, cheaper and much safer than the Soviets. The Americans accomplished many of those same things, usually within weeks of the Soviet Union. We weren't as far behind as many in the world thought at the time. The things the Soviets did, they did because they knew that America was planning on doing them in the near future. The Soviets just wanted to be first, so they rushed untrained people into space in order to accomplish the feat before the Americans. In the end, America triumphed when they landed the first humans on the moon and returned them safely back to earth. The Soviets have yet to send a man beyond earth orbit.
