Advertising the Space Race

c>log
Here are some vintage advertising images from the Space Race which started last century. The Space Race was a mid-to-late 20th century competition between the Soviet Union  and the United States  for supremacy in space exploration. Between 1957 and 1975, Cold War rivalry between the two nations focused on attaining firsts in space exploration, which were seen as necessary for national security and symbolic of technological and ideological superiority. The Space Race involved pioneering efforts to launch artificial satellites, sub-orbital and orbital human spaceflight around the Earth, and piloted voyages to the Moon. Thanks for visiting and please come back often!
