Film Lesson "The Right Stuff"

In this movie the Russians were competing against the Americans to see who could get spacecraft into space first.During the movie the Americans made many attempts to beat Russia but failed. Russia was the first to get a spacecraft into space first but the Americans were the first to get a man on the moon so no one really won. A scene that i will remember the cold war is when the United States were testing out the spaceships and many of them will explode. It showed us how desperate the U.S was for winning the space competition against Russia.
