💨The Soviet Union prioritized speed and being first in the space race, leading to innovative but risky approaches.
🌟The Soviets were willing to cut corners and take experiments directly to real launches, often foregoing extensive testing.
📇The pressure to be first led to the Soviets pushing boundaries and achieving remarkable milestones, such as the first spacewalk.
📌However, the focus on speed also resulted in failures and setbacks, such as accidents during re-entry.
🏁The United States, with a more methodical and risk-mitigating approach, eventually caught up and surpassed the Soviets in the space race.
