RE: The first discussion. What specifically do you want to achieve from communism?
that 10/14 was just a random number tbh, but what makes you think the USSR won the space race? First, what is the criteria to win the space race? Can't deny the fact that Russians were the pioneer of spaceflight, they sacrificed more than their US counterpart, plus they had a tighter budget to work on with but we also can't deny the fact that moon landing was the historical checkpoint in the space race.
From the science point of view, there were no winner and losers but still, if I had to give the space medal, I would give it to the US. Solely on the basis that they put man on the moon.
btw, capitalism worked out well for that guy. Collider getting cancelled and making millions.
the ussr was first to everything, except for a single goal of the US, putting a human on the moon. After that the us just declared themselves the victors.
If I recall correctly, the USSR had the first person in space, first satellite, first person in orbit, and first man-made object on the moon
