The Space race is as a consequence of the Cold War.

The Cold war is a consequence of Josef Stalin

His success was based on a Hard Line Approach-mostly Hard Line within the Soviet Union

He continued this Hard Line policy with the West after WW2

(That was what he was good at -why change? He understood power based on raw fear)

The Cold War continued after the death of Stalin

The Space race was only possible because of access to Rocket technology -originally developed by the Nazis during WW2.

USSR and USA both had access this.

USA was caught with its 'pants down ' when on 4 October 1957

a artificial satellite named Sputnik was successfully launched by USSR

The Space race was now a reality

First points to USSR
