At first President Eisenhower denied the U-2 plane's purpose (which was espionage) but then had to admit it was a spy plane when the USSR showed photos of Russian military bases taken by the plane. The pilot was imprisoned in Russia for two years, and the incident embarrassed the U.S. causing a cooling in USSR relations.
