"The Right Stuff"

The Soviet Union and the US where competing to see who was the first person to go to space. At first the US was winning because they where building the spaceship and they had to build it several times because something would always come out wrong. The when they finally build the spaceship right the US decided to they wanted to send a monkey up to space first because they did not want no one dieing up in space. Then 2 day after they send the monkey that Soviet Union send a human up to space. It made the US look kinda bad because who sends a monkey and not a human. The scene that will help me remember the Soviet Union is when they where building the spaceship because that also reminds me of who was the first person to go to the moon.
