The Space Race officially began with the Soviet Union's Sputnik 1 on October 4th, 1957. The Sputnik 1 was the first Earth Orbiting Artificial Satellite to be launched which caused great shock to the United States. The United States believed themselves to be the leader in Space Technology and were therefore surprised by the launch of the Sputnik Program except for the CIA and President Eisenhower, who were aware of this thanks to spy plane imagery. I can not find when the Space Race ended
