On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union launched the satellite Sputnik and, with it, an international space race. The United States and the Soviet Union rushed to declare dominance of space for 18 years, until the two countries agreed to a more collaborative model. The real winner? Science. Jeff Steers describes the history -- and the benefits -- of the space race.

I like the little touches in the animation, like Kennedy having a picture of Marilyn Monroe on his desk.
+Alexander Smith I'm Russian and I entirely agree!
me too
lol
The Soviet Union launched Sputnik I wish i could see it really happen
It's so romantic
Soviet Astronauts are called Cosmonauts
*Космонавты
Thank you for the useless information
Unlike "cream soda", "baking soda" is not a drink.
Cosmonauts should be used at all times. Not because the word was/is used by the USSR/Russia, but simply because it is more accurate. People are not really flying to astras, but they do kind of fly in cosmos.
american cosmonauts are called astronauts
You forgot to mention, that USSR build first space station - MIR
After space race
The Imperialists cant just decide its finished and they won because they met a goal for the first time.
***** lol
WIACZO they also don't exist anymore
The first space station is actually Salyut 1.
Welcome to the comment section, we have:
The American apologist, "The U.S. won the space race."
The Contrarians, "The Soviets one the space race."
The People trying to be inspirational, "Humanity one the space race."
The Borings, "Marilyn Monroe picture."
And then there are intellectuals, saying monkeys won the race
*The American apollo-gist
USSR
-First man,woman, dog,satellite in space and first man In open space.
USA
-First man on the Moon
I also believe the USSR launched the first Moon rover though I could be wrong.
Either way USSR won.
USSR sent a rover to Venus too first and also to the moon first. Soviets won also because they were not held back as much. The Americans not sent up astronauts if it was not "safe". Soviets valunteered and they knew they could die.
Americans do this all the time, they act like vinners. Vietnam, both World Wars, now the football World Cup, they act like they won everything, the space race too.
And they win when they say. They are participants and they demand to be judges too.

Your list is biased, not sure why you count some accomplishments but not others.
Also, you count "firsts" as the weight as being the ONLY one to do something. Many of the achievements the U.S. made were NEVER reproduced by anyone (Unless it was a joint venture with the U.S.)...And I'm limiting this list to missions launched BEFORE the end of the space race (If we even extended up to the collapse of the U.S.S.R--the list would be much, much longer).
There are many metrics where the U.S. has easily won the space race. It really depends on how you weight accomplishments. Are things with humans/living things much more important? How about things where one country was the ONLY one to do them? (IE the moon, Mercury, exo planets ect)..Selection a few achievements, and then saying "these are the ones that count"---is extremely silly.
Robert Bonino You know why i am biased? Because the head of the russian space program came back from a gulag, and later died because of that. But others, who were in his shadow hated him and not helped him in times when he needed. HE ARCHIVED THE FIRST ORBIT WE KNOW WITH A PROBE! And man, and women, and dog, and space station and first mars sample. Space flybyes? Try landing on bodies!
And you know what, he had to be in the shadow of the state. People hated him because he was "famous", but noone, no avarage people know who he was.
Who worked for the USA? Well, look at Von Brown, i can see how american culture hated HIM for the funding problems, he had no way to get more founding but the media said it was his problem. But don't forget, how he got there. He lived his dream alll his life. While MORE people died building his rockets. He wanted to reach the mon so much, he forgot how much he sacrificed for this.
NOONE WON THE SPACE RAC!E!
Korolyov made his dream possible, sending people to orbit and died because others hated him.
Von Braun sacrificed everyone and everything for HIS personnel goal, sending someone to the moon. HE was the man who sent humanity to the "stars" first, and he died not long after that because he had no goal.
The money pumped in it, and lifes lost... noone really won.
Yes, americans archived "more", but the russians archived "heavier" things, except the moon landing. And they already had a marsokhod project and helped the americans with the plans to reach it.
I like to say noone or the russians won, because some people especially in the USA are too patriotic and has too big ego.
They have to realise what was lost for the goal.
They act like they won everything, noone won.
THEY said the moon landing was the goal, THIS WAS NOT A CAR RACE! YOu can't say what is the goal! The cold war was won by the usa, yes, but the space race was only between two people, and the german won by archiving the biggest thing. But without the russian he could not have archived this much.
The race was just a "name" given for space exploration to sound better.
+〈--- Literally FAST food
Your cognitive disonance is amazing. You say "you can't say what was the goal"--but when I bring up all these accomplishments, you immeditately discredit them as "fly bys" or other nonsense.Do you even have any idea the math or technical expertise required behind getting a craft to "fly by" an orbiting body NEXT to earth, much less an exo planet (There is a reason why it was a huge Russian accomplishment to achieve heliocentric orbit and pass he moon)? Let me give you an idea--the Russians and Americans failed to "fly by" Venus/Mars over *10 times* before someone actually did (And quite a few failed attempts AFTER, by both parties.)---Many probes simply missed the mark. And that's because we are talking MASSIVE distances; with objects moving RELATIVE to each other at significant speeds--it's an enormous task. (Also, hitting a celestial body wasn't the goal because it doesn't give as much "data"--the reason why hitting the moon was important was because of Russia and the U.S.'s plans to land there eventually. The pioneers COULD have "hit" mars/venus but they'd have gotten tons less data.)
Now imagine how much harder it is to navigate to one of the largest planets and weave between them--it was an incredible feat of engineering. Most of the pioneer craft were able to visit multiple exo-planets.
As for the "gulag" and the rest; the personal losses in the space program were extremely minor compared to say, WW2; and yet humanity achieved almost the same dramatic shift in technology as a way. All in all, I'd rather face the loss/gains of the space "race", than a war. But regardless; I'm not even sure how you connect Von Braun's anti-personal social disorder and Segei Korloven's improsement during the purge with the "space race".
Seergei would have been imprisoned regardless; because the purge was a horrific point in Soviet history. And Von Braun was a hermit who consistently regretted how his advances changed the world while he was with the Nazis. Very little to do with the "space race"--if anything, both men used the "race" to find some relief from their past by working hard.
(Before I begin, I am not American.)
It was called the space RACE for a reason. It's the first to the end, and, as NASA achieved the greatest technological feat in the entire space race, putting a man on the moon, they are the winners. If someone runs is first for 90% of a race, then is overtaken in the last 10%, who won?
The soviets obviously won, they got their stuff into space first. It was called the space race, not the put a person on the moon race
+Kaliel Santos Well the first man (and woman) in space was Russian. So the USSR did win. Everybody knows that it's much more significant to go to space when others are on Earth than to go to the moon when others could go to space.
+Nick Azar ...Germans would win if it was like that.
+мisteг Rㅇьloχiдп But germans didn't put any man in the space so how they won?
lockhrt999
because I was talking about Nick Azar's approach.
The space race was not just a "get first to space" competition but about space operation in general. Landing a man on the moon is a MUCH bigger feat than sending a man to space. That's why Americans officialy won.
1957 - USSR launches Sputnik, first artificial satellite in space
1957 - USSR launches Laika a first living animal to orbit Earth.
1961 - USSR launches Yuri Gagarin as the first man in space
1963 - USSR launches Valentina Tereshkova as the first lady in space
1965 - USSR Alexey Leonov is the first man to perform a space walk
1969 - USA Neil Armstrong & Buzz Aldrin as first people on the moon
1971 - USSR launches world's 1st operational space station, Salyut 1
1979 - USA launches 1st space telescope, the Heao
1981 - USA launches first space shuttle
Yet America clings to 1969 :)
US beat them in the balls.
Conduit Reaper not.. really
Whoami691 and 1970, 71, &72 :) Men placed on the moon by Americans? 12 Men placed on the moon by Russians? ZERO. The risk of sending HUMANS to the moon far outweighs the risks of sending MACHINES to the moon. Plus, America did it in full view of the world while the Soviets hid like cowards behind their 'Iron Curtain'. LOL!
Sherpaful
Oh look Another Arrogant American thinking they are best and fuck the world.
the world NEVER seens those. /end sarcasm.
Gagarin was the first man in space but he was not the first man conducting EVA as you showed it in the video. It was Alexey Leonov
Woo Woo Yeah he stay in his capsule
Yes, Alexey Leonov is relatively underrated astronaut. globally at least.
And he was Soviet too!
John Glenn didn’t EVA either
People here saying that the space race was won not by the US or USSR, but by humanity.
While that is a nice thing to say, we must not forget that the space race between the US and USSR was focused on national pride more than anything else. Nobody would care to spend so much money on science if it were not for their nation's glory against a rival in a competition.
Nowadays, space exploration is definitely more about humanity's achievement that different nations', but it was the race for national pride that let us achieve so many scientific feats and discoveries in such as relatively short period of time.
Samovar maker
Its sad but War has been the engine of nearly all of Man's greatest achievements.
That's a fair point, but I think it says more about competition than national pride per se. After all, one could also pin a fair share of the blame for the First World War on the national pride.
Samovar maker, the US won the space race, the first man on the moon.
Agreed
In USSR it was people's pride or pride for their country. There just was not such a thing like a nation..
If you think about it "space race" basically means who got to space first and by that logic the soviets won
Serbia won,we were in space 25 years before Soviet
Yea i heard about it long time ago that US bought the space program from Yugoslavia but I've read that a Serbian aerospace engineer once said it's fake. There is no Yugoslavian space program and there is a so-called documentary about this and it is a docu-fiction meaning it's mostly fiction.... It's a movie. So the Serbia space program is probably an urban legend.
Based on that it would have been Germany, which was clearly stated in this video. Lo, regardless the USSR beat everyone in like 20 different FIRST in space the US putting a man on the moon shouldn't have ended nor meant that we won.We played catch up the whole time and then made on big feat and somehow won ... wtf
No moon was the only American triumph.
Soviets got rover to the moon before US did. USSR won classcuck

Speaking as a neutral Swiss here, I wouldn't even claim that the Soviets won the space race: the biggest winner was the human species. But I often see citizens of the USA claiming their country somehow "won" the space race, which is silly at best.
Not quite, there is no more Soviet Union.

Your list is incredibly biased. I say this because you include a picture of the moon, but not data from Jupiter, or pictures of mars or data from Venus or mercury. You literally just plucked out Soviet firsts and disregarded most firsts of comparable nature from the U.S. Like again, a photonic measure of the moon (Picture) is listed, but a suite of measurements from mercury, mars and venus--oh, that's nothing!
Also, you count "firsts" as the weight as being the ONLY one to do something. Many of the achievements the U.S. made were NEVER reproduced by anyone (Unless it was a joint venture with the U.S.)...And I'm limiting this list to missions launched BEFORE the end of the space race (If we even extended up to the collapse of the U.S.S.R--the list would be much, much longer).
"Silly" indeed. There are many metrics where the U.S. has easily won the space race--even clobbered their opponent. You'd have to have a very narrow view to believe it was "silly". Or an extremely biased one--and given your selections, I don't think that's arguable.
The human species belonging to the genus USSR.
If we say distance the US won but if we say how much stuff we put in space the USSR won
What about the first interstellar probe? (Voyager 1)
Who won the space race? *HUMANITY*, who benefitted from it :)
+VvonGianni Herz Now we still spend billions while others starve, so your point is kinda invalid.
I wont even start an discussion about moon landing, because if USA didn't landed on moon, Soviet Union for sure would tell about it to everyone, and they didn't... I'm just waiting when you will start to write that satellites are also hoax and GPS is just an elaborate system of tower relays... -__-

you should have mentioned one of the greatest minds of 20th century and the father of the Soviet space programme...the legendary Sergei korolev
We need another space race. The goal: land a man on Mars. Go!
2024, just wait
starfcy wait what ? the massive failure of the Mars one project ? :3
khenricx i cri evrytim
NASA is already going to do that in 2030 with no competition to be in sight.
danny6290 well...a rover was landed on mars
I know it was after 1975, but wasn't Russia also the first to land a probe on another planet(Venus)?
I figured that was worth mentioning, Russia had a lot of flaws, but all the advancements in many fields of science they made is admirable.
Yeah, they sent several probes to venus, and one to Mars long before we (the US) did.
They were also the first to kill three people in space.
1972 and 1982, they recorded audio both times, audio and video in 1982 (and it lasted much longer)
Venera missions had some laudable out of the box thinking, same goes for the appollo docking mechanism
excatly
why the Sputnik was received "in fear" by the world? you assume an unitary world position about the USSR. Say USA saw it in fear, which isn't true also, but is closer to what happened
The reason it was so feared is that the launch of the sputnik meant that the soviets had the ability of launching a nuclear missile
@@rcforb5255 it also came very unexpected
@@rcforb5255 that's a bruh moment
Also because the Nazis did it years prior except the warhead wasn't nuclear

wonderfully drawn and explained.
You can also compare the total number of successful space launches from 1957 to 1991: the USSR - 2298, the USA - 945. The USSR has 2.43 times more than the USA.
The main winner is humanity! The space race has spurred the development of science, technology and industry. But the main factor in the growth of living standards is the development of fundamental science. The highest growth in labor productivity was in the 50s. Also, high growth was noted in the 60s and 70s. These are the years of the space race. Now the growth of labor productivity is 3 times less than in the 50s.

slippytiger: You would only have had a convincing argument if you'd compared Soviet firsts to US firsts. It appears you saw an old anti American site which posted a similar giant list of Soviet firsts but had maybe 3 US firsts. The site totally omitted the Gemini program which established many firsts. Racing didn't prove either nation to be superior in the long run. It actually caused long term damage to the US space effort. Example: What good was having a space race when NASA budgets fell from a reasonable 1% fed spending of the 1970s to the current half a percent of fed spending. For comparison, NASAs record budget of 1966 was about 5% fed spending. Furthermore, we now have a conspiracy soaked society, possibly half of which advocate space/lunar hoaxes while still more are not certain. In any case, the space race itself is considered by most experts and non expert me, to be the period 1961-75. After 1975, the US and Soviet programs diverged. The US developed the shuttle, the Soviets developed space stations.

And they say that the US won the space race
Cherrypicking?
VERY TRUE..I always feel creative when I pick a fight with someone....or it's the other way around.
Those floating cosmonauts are so cute :)
Why are the stronauts swiming in water ?
it was an old simulation when there is no gravity
gleb vlasenko everything about that sentence is wrong. You are dumb.
Blade 31404 Did you watch any documentaries?
gleb vlasenko If you didn't get the context of my comment I was joking because in the animation the astronauts are "swimming" in space which would be impossible irl.
oh wait i get it
Dang,we can see things millions of light years away from Earth,and around 90% of the ocean is still unexplored.
very inspirational
As always fantastic :)
1957: space race
30 September 2019: area 51 race
Who won the space race? Humanity did.
nah, specifically the soviets.
What if alien race won it first? :P
+Joshua Burns Who is participating? The earth.
+Jack Hoff I disagree, The west got the most out of this new technology since we have better economies
Loved this one)
ขอบคุณครับ สำหรับการบรรยายไทย
The space race benefited all of mankind.
it benefited hard boiled eggs!!!
So what your saying is, everyone won the space race?
+Jared Dixon when two of the biggest superpowers in the fund education and discovery instead of trying to find new ways to screw each other over, everyone wins
Love them. love the animations.
i love hard boiled egg
you taught me alot
Light spaceship?
The Saturn V?
I'd love to see the medium and large contraptions.
It's amazing what we can accomplish when we actually pay attention to science.

"Who won the space race?" Dude,this is such a easy question!
it was Nigeria
No it was Ethiopia
Hahahaha
i was doing a comic for school and i wanted to do space race and this video helped alot thank youu
This video made me happy :)
The Soviet Union won the SPACE Race. The premise was to get a man to space first and the USSR did just that (also got the first dog in space).
)
Also they had spiders on space too (fun fact)
They also abused their scientist
The USA won. The things the USA did were never replicated by the USSR. A clear showing of technological dominance by the US. On the other hand, everything the USSR was eventually done by the US, multiple times.
Hehe. Love the Marilyn picture on JFK's desk! :P

i see no god up here - Yuri Gagarin
Who won the space race the human race did we all benefited from it.
Just say the two magic words: WHITE MEN
what a good video man
I realized that Sputnik is the thing that wanders around in Fallout 4 during earth space science class
the space race was over when Yuri Gagarin ascended to space. Thus, "the first man in space." Theres always something satisfying about saying "first man in space" than "first man on the moon." Us americans need to stop being ignorant and face the facts that the reds were the first once to have gone to space no matter how many times we explored. No matter how many times we say. "we won" We just know in our hearts they were the once to pull it off first. Russia don't give a crap about us winning the space race. I bet a sly smile was made when we declared that we won the race, because they know it was a way to feel proud of our ourselves.
There’s something satisfying about saying “we did something you can’t” we could have been the first man in space, but we were forced to do additional tests because a dead astronaut would kill nasas funding. In the Soviet Union, if Yuri Gagarin had died, they would have just kept it a secret.
The fact is, we could put men on the moon, the ruskies couldn’t.
In other words, USSR won.
How did the USSR win?
(I'm not American btw so don't say it's patriotic bias.)
They sent up the first satellite the first man, woman, and dog into space. The satellite is still extremely relevant, whereas putting someone on the moon really isn't.
Ali Bassam It all depends how you classify the end of the space race.
Yeah. Thats true. And for me, the Russians created the only relevant effect.
The germans put a rocket in space in 1944, and soviets, Americans and even the British put small rockets into sub-orbital flight long before Sputnik.
I meant "light" as in "not heavy", also, i mispelled "lead" and wrote "led" instead, as well as "send" instead of "sent"
Love it!
hard boiled egg you shall get!!!
0:46 my God I'm struggling all my life to decide who is more effective between USA & USSR. And video tells me that it's German😱
Its not germany...
The V2 just fell back down not long after. It never went into orbit
USA: I Won
USSR: I won

India & China: We will join in next round
Ah I get it, so when the USSR used (and improved) German technology they merely extended it, but when the Americans do the same they aren't extending it but somehow doing it all on their own.
Us took the engine unlike the soviets who took the entire design. Go kiss Putins feet commie boi
Why is the Vangaurd T.V.3 very rarely mentioned in any space race articles and videos?
Both of them are winners of this race
no hard boiled eggs won
Should have mentioned the Soviets totally failed attempt to put a man on the Moon which is a whole interesting story of it's own.
Let's just be clear here. It was the "Space Race"
The first man in Space was Yuri Gagarin of the USSR.
The first man on the moon was Neil Armstrong of the USA.
Technically speaking the USSR won, but I mean all things considered, it's really a tie.
america later sent a man to space but the ussr never got a man on the moon
@@rustyslug2943СССР распался и и с тех пор не было никаких выдающихся космических достижений, за исключением, может быть, фотографии чёрной дыры
I know what this is but I still like listening to people talk about history.
history about hard boiled egg?
The 'space race' wasn't just symbolic, it was also an attempt to develop weapons in space. (Search "Strategic Defense Initiative" on Wikipedia, popularly known as the 'Star Wars' program). Moreover, most scientific research in the past has been performed for military reasons, and so the space race was no different.
-do you know who was the least lucky person in soviet union?
-no. who is it?
- Gagarin. Because he flew around the Earth several times and always landed in Russia
He travelled around the world a lot after it.
lol. Russia is better than America though.
He is probably the luckiest person on Earth, judging by your logic.

Well the race isn't over since the true finish line is the edge of the universe itself.
+Lygar X that's a large goal
ChiefAnator 117 go big or go home. i hope we one day become able to travel to other universes or one day figure out how to make our own universe and re create a big bang. to do that would be the first step in mastering all there is
I like that attitude, maybe one day we will if more people become like you an I concerned about humanities future as a race, to become a interstellar one. until that day we must keep dreaming or ironically having faith.
Nice
Not directly but many international calls are routed via satellite rather than cable so overall telecoms has a partial dependency on satellites.
This is some of the most fallacious garbage I've ever heard. The USSR never used a single German engineer in it's space program because all the top German scientists, engineers, intelligentsia fled to surrender to the western forces (England and USA). Not as much as a single German soldier would've preferred to surrender to the USSR. So you can imagine why anyone who had something to offer would obviously choose not to wait around and pray for soviet mercy. No German engineers or scientists ever stuck around and waited for the Soviet armies to round them up, they all fled westwards and surrendered to Americans and Brits.
The Sputnik, along with the Russian space program, were all made by a team of only ethnic Russian engineers such as Mikhail Khomyakov, Yaroslav Golovanov, Mikhail Tikhonravov, Nikolai Kutyrkin and Maksim Khramov. The Russian Sputnik had nothing to do with any German V2 rockets or wasn't even roughly based on any premature German technology.
But it is true that most German engineers and scientists did surrender to the western forces and played a huge role in the development of NASA. Too many Americans can't seem to overcome their pride and admit that it was the genius of the Russian mind that put the very first human in space. Just like in this video, Americans are willing to give anyone credit for bringing forward the space age unless it happens to be Russians.
After 1955, the soviet space program was run nearly exclusively by soviets, but they received an initial boost thanks to many blueprints and drawings found in Germany and a few captured engineers, Helmut Gröttrup being the most famous. But yes, after 1955, you're right.
Yes many Americans are blinded by pride, but you seem to have the same problem. At any rate the Soviets took about 2000 German rocket scientists/technicians into custody in Operation Osoaviakhim. This was a huge benefit to the Soviet space program. The Soviets were certainly more efficient than the USA in developing space technology, but both were immensely boosted by German efforts.
I love how Soviet Union won the space race, even without German scientists.
that's quite incorrect... even though Soviet Union didn't utilize German scientists in rocketry nearly as much as the United States (though they did still utilize them for several key years), there were German scientists working in other space related fields for the next couple decades, especially electronics... there is much more to space travel than rocketry.
But the ussr or usa didnt win the space race. The vikings did
Xdxd.... By that sense we should have a big tree floating in space
We need another space race
we need hard boiled egg!
Soviet union: first in space and almost everything

How did the camera get in position on the moon before Neil stepped foot for the first time?
it was attached to the outside of the space craft before it left earth.
I love the Marylyn Monroe pic on JFKs desk
The Soviets won the space race. Landing a man on the moon is impressive, but largely pointless. Our moon is hardly unique, it’s but one of millions of discovered moons, but there is only one space, and to have the first human being outside earth’s atmosphere is the real crowning achievement
The soviets had their fair share of screw ups too, it just so happens they kept them extremely secretive. Either way, I don't think there was really a "winner". We both advanced science for a silly goal that neither of us really reached.
woah, this was just uploaded? i thought youtube was suggesting a random TEDEducation video
Aww the stations kissed! :3
USSR won hands down
Yass.... Soviets are great
