The Soviet Union achieved success in developing the first reusable spacecraft, and the United States responded with an increased focus on math and science education.

Each nation tried to outdo the other by being the first to reach milestones of space exploration, such as the first human-made satellite and the first mission to the moon.

The Soviet Union earned great scientific prestige when it landed two men on the moon and returned them safely to Earth before the Americans could do so.
