The Cold War ended with the demise of the Soviet Union due to economic problems that were exacerbated by an arms race with the US that they could not continue. As revolutions mounted in Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991.
Strategically Hitler wanted Soviet Union/Russia as German colony, provider of food and raw materials as well as "living space" for German people, while considering Russian people inferior to Germans. He also wanted defeat Soviet Union as stronghold of communism, since Nazi ideology was violently anticommunist. Tactically in 1940 Hitler was annoyed by Soviet Union ambitions in Europe, and he fought that defeat of Soviet Union would convince Great Britain's to start peace talks. Arguing that Great Britain doesn't surrender because it's trying to play Soviet Union against Germany, he decided to destroy Soviet Union, but was defeated by Russian resistance.
1922 Formally created by the Russian, Ukrainian, and Belorussian Soviet Socialist Republics, including Transcaucasia SSR (which would be sub-divided later for administrative purposes).

The successful Russian launch of the Sputnik 1 satellite in 1957 did effectively begin the "space race." Afterwards, the United States hurried to get a satellite into orbit. It also prompted John F. Kennedy to proclaim that the United States would be the first to get a man to the moon-- by the end of the 1960s.

Man, do you need to use the Spell Check program! I THINK you meant to ask "WHO WAS PRESIDENT WHEN THE SOVIET UNION LAUNCHED THEIR SPACE SHUTTLE?" As they don't have a space shuttle, we don't know who the president will be when they do have one.
