Question 7 • Online World History B

Which of the following might be presented as evidence by someone arguing that the United States won the Space Race?

Answer
A
landing a man on the moon
B
launching the first satellite
C
building the International Space Station
D
inventing the computer

Explanation

The United States could point to landing astronauts on the Moon in 1969 as evidence that it won the Space Race. The Soviet Union achieved the earlier milestones of launching the first satellite and sending the first human into space, so those support the opposite argument. The International Space Station was built through international cooperation, and inventing the computer was not a Space Race victory.
