  • Space Race” in the 1960S
    The “Space Race” in the 1960s In May 1961, President Kennedy told Americans that he wanted to send an astronaut to the Moon. No one had been to the Moon and he wanted the United States to get there first. He wanted the United States to reach the Moon before the country Russia reached the Moon. At this time the United States and Russia, also called the Soviet Union, raced to see who could do more in space. The two nations were fighting a Cold War against each other. In this war actions were important. Sending a man to the Moon first would show that the United States was a leader in the world. The Soviet Union started the race before John F. Kennedy became President. In October 1957 they used a rocket to send the first satellite into space. It was called Sputnik. People in the United States were shocked when they heard about Sputnik because it showed that the Soviet Union had the science to send an object to space. The United States worked hard and sent its first satellite in January 1958. After a few years, the Soviet Union surprised the United States again. On April 12, 1961, The Soviet Union sent the first man to space. His name was Yuri Gagarin and he orbited the earth one time. It took him less than two hours to go all around the earth in his spacecraft. Americans were worried that the Soviet Union had better technology than the U.S. A few weeks after Gagarin’s flight, the United States sent Alan Shepard into space, but Shepard did not orbit the earth.
