Slavs still claim that they won the space race

sounds like a massive cope

>and claiming that you were leading for [whatever]% of the race.
*and claiming that you won because you were leading for [whatever]% of the race.

>SPACE race
>first man in SPACE

Moving the goal posts after the race was over doesn't constitute winning the race. Eternal cope.

>slavs
The US won it but the "slavs" part is where you're wrong. Russians and Ukrainians at best

It's literally facts. Soviets had an early advantage due to more powerful boosters, which was soon rendered irrelevant once the USA caught up, and from that point onwards Soviets preferred focusing on political side-shows like hey, look at this first ever rendezvous in space! Nevermind the fact that we have no control whatsoever over orbital parameters and that we essentially just made two crafts pass next to each other! Or the multiman capsule bullshit where they stuffed three men in one capsule by removing the safety equipment.

Of course, they did TRY to match American achievements, they were desperately trying to beat Americans with their lunar program, but sadly N1 just couldn't stop blowing up :-(
Interestingly as far as I know none of the Saturn boosters ever failed like that. And not only that, but Soviets also failed at achieving a sort of a consolation prize, namely sending a manned Soyuz modif. around the moon, or getting an unmanned sample returner to land.

Honestly, it was embarrassing.
See, you could say this if Soviets didn't desperately try to catch up with Amerimutts and failed spectacularly and decisively.

And by that logic, you could also argue that von Braun won the space race, because he was the first one to launch something into space.

The truth is that Americans accomplished everything that Soviets ever did, but Soviets were left begging in the dust and never came even close to doing what the Americans did.

By this brainlet logic, the space race can never end, since there's nearly an infinite amount of goals that can be set in space exploration.

>the space race can never end,
The space race ended because it only existed in the context of the Cold War, ultra brainlet.

Says who, smoothbrain?

cope

that is the worst argument. its like losing all but one race, and claiming that race was the only one that counted. childish shit

USA had later advantage due to having literally all resources in the world
but it sounds like a cope, imagine losing a technology race against a single backwards country while literally printing money

The real winners are the participants who caused progress. I salute the Soviet Union and the United States of America for their service to the world.

Are you acting retarded on purpose, or are you just Serbian?
>its like losing all but one race
The USSR lost waaay more than just one race, because apart from the obvious shit the USA had some extremely important firsts, like the first pilot-flown spacecraft, first rendezvous (essential for ANY manned mission), first docking, first TLI, first liquid hydrogen engine... In fact you could argue that the USA decisively overtook the Soviets with Gemini in 1965-66. Plus their interplanetary research was always more advanced than the Soviets.

Besides, like I said, Americans accomplished every single thing that Soviets did. Soviets couldn't catch up with the Americans DESPITE TRYING. Soviets lost fair and square.
You lost, stop coping.

Stop repeating after me, copengagen

what of significance has hungary done in the past 5 years?

>like the first pilot-flown spacecraft, first rendezvous (essential for ANY manned mission), first docking, first TLI, first liquid hydrogen engine
It's like saying neolithic people won space race because they invented bronze casting or some shit

They most certainly won the nuclear race. As in, who could make people hate nuclear power the quickest.

It was us, the germans, who won it.

simple as

And Americans are just mentally retarted land whales.

Slavs won thousands of years before mutts.

The cope of such proportions can’t be expected from paprikas, only a mutteroid could’ve said something so insane

You would be nowhere without Tesla

The only race they won was who could blow up one of their reactors first

you mean famous Russian scientist Nikolay Teslov?

cope nuclearlets

>It's like saying neolithic people won space race because they invented bronze casting or some shit
What point are you even trying to make? Shit like the first rendezvous in space is separate from the moon landing program, in fact Soviets attempted it even before the Americans and failed due to complete lack of orbital mechanics. So Carpenter & the first manually controlled vehicle and Gemini as the first spacecraft capable of fully maneuvering in orbit, rendezvous-ing with another craft, docking, changing orbit, etc. were actually the breaking point of the race.

I genuinely don't understand the point of your post.

why bother with that if we can't even live on another planet?

To flex on Slavshits.

Sweden is big on nuclear power. We just don't catastrophically fuck up like you did.

why can't we exactly? The biggest problem at the moment is getting to a planet worth living on

Depends on what you see as the final thing. In 1989 the most advanced orbital system was the Buran-Energia complex, even more, advanced and efficient than the Saturn V.

Stop being so rude to us, i personally love Hungry my grandfather was in Budapest in 1956

Because you don't innovate, you just use whatever other people invented because you are white niggers
