The 'Cold War' between the USA and the USSR fuelled a great deal of rivalry into gettiing a man on the moon. This so called 'Space Race' virtually ended when the USA made the first landing on the moon. Up until then the Russians were winning outright - the first artificial satellite (Sputnik 1), the first animals in space, the first manned mission into space, the first space walk, the first crashlanding of an artificial unmanned craft on thhe moon and so on. However, the prize was the moon - and walking on it. When the Russians realised they had lost that they put their efforts into developing a space station in orbit round the earth. This developed into the MIR space station - probably the most versatile and successful mission after the Voyager probes. The MIR outlived all expectations of its lifespan, and, as it eventually became worn and outdated - and a little unreliable - it was finally scrapped in favour of co-operation with the US and others in developing the International Space Station.
