This E-book describes the earliest stages of the space race between the Soviet Union and the United States. It summarizes the early development of rocket technology, the first mission into outer space (in 1949), and the first satellites to orbit Earth. The reader will discover how Prof. von Braun and his entire engineering team escaped execution. Find out how American programs had the advantage in the 1940s, and why the Soviets forged ahead of the United States in the 1950s. Learn about the massive impact that Sputnik had around the world, including its impact on the presidential election of 1960. This is the first of a series of books that describe the crucial early stages of the space race. The Race to Earth Orbit is also available as a paperback.
