Both the United States and the Soviet Union developed their space programs in the 1950s, spurred on by Cold War antagonism and anxiety. The Soviet Union launched its Vostok space program in 1961, conducting six missions -- and achieving many firsts -- during the next two years. Its successor, the Voskhod space program, ran from 1964-1965, and the Soyuz program continued after that.
