Europeans suck at everything except sucking mudslime dick. We're the laughing stock of the modern age.

>AfterWorld War II, many European scientists leftWestern Europein order to work with the United States. Although the 1950s boom made it possible for Western European countries to invest in research and specifically in space-related activities, Western European scientists realized solely national projects would not be able to compete with the two main superpowers. In 1958, only months after theSputnik shock,Edoardo AmaldiandPierre Auger, two prominent members of the Western European scientific community at that time, met to discuss the foundation of a common Western European space agency.

Always with the jews. Don't you shits ever get tired?

Anyone with a brain can take notice of things like the over representation of jews in the media, politics and banking. What takes real intelligence is understanding the causes of it, dividing the fact in it's separate and individual components and do something to change it.
That's the part where /pol/acks fail. Anything more than "the jews are evil and are out to get us" is to much for their brain, probably molded with all the inertia of their jobless life.

Why are you all so butthurt? Listen to me: a cold war is literally a turbo-mode for humankind technological evolution. During a war or cold war resources are allocated more towards research and military other than stupid domestic society and welfare programs. If you think about it: computer networks and other major leaps in technology, almost everything we have today as the current state of technology is a direct result of intense funding and research during cold war times. Before that almost every technological advance came from WW2 times. What have we achieved since then? Yes, a few rovers landed on Mars but other than that we seem to just be focusing on facebook / twitter and SJW bullshit. Yes, people suffer from a cold war because the government allocates resources more towards the military and research, but that's fine by me, fuck the people, the world is over-populated as it is anyway. It's time to think as a species and advance our technology even if it means to sacrifice the standard of living for some of our people.

I would absolutely love to see a cold war between the US and China/Russia, there would be countless, COUNTLESS, new technological advances, everything, from AI to microchips, to quantum computers would see an enormous leap, competing space stations and probably moon bases. Also: without an incentive to the US, the government won't make a Mars-colony anywhere near a priority. JFK didn't order to go to the moon because that's cool, but because he got his ass kicked by USSR, without a cold-war competition there are no incentives to spend the extreme resources necessary to achieve extraordinary things. The only thing is that the US would be at a massive disadvantage this time with all its debt. The status-quo is simply not as good anymore as it was in the 50s after WW2 when the rest of the world was in ashes compared to an untouched US economy and Operation Paperclip brought the most brilliant scientists to the US.

yeah I know, but I said combined with China, with focus on China. I basically included Russia so that China has a technological leap to then be able to start competing with US. Because so far, Russian S400/S500 missle-systems are beyond anything the Chinese got (probably even the US got). So it makes both cold-war enemies start at a more even starting position.

>"liberated"
let me tell you how the world works:

[0] apply divide and conquer method by weapons-supply and supporting various rebel groups so that key countries of interest keep having problems
[1] if becomes necessary: destroy other country either by resource-wasting extreme competition or by "bringing democracy"
[2] after the country lies in ashed bring in the World Bank and IMF, both governed primarily by the US
[3] impose heavy loan-conditions and therefore restricting economic growth and innovation for decades
[4] for the rest of the time, just spy on everyone and see what the "competition" does and if further intervention of any kind is necessary

This is how governance on a global scale really works and this is what currently ensures the global dominance of the US (politically, economically and technologically). Source: I am currently working towards a PhD in Economics, so I know a thing or two about stuff like that as I read countless papers about Worldbank/IMF/InternationalFinance

the finish line is not defined. You can extrapolate this race infinitely into the future. And if you define the race as not limited to the 2 parties then you can even say that it is currently "on hold" until e.g. China enters and a new space race episode starts.

And if you now say that the moon itself was the finish line then that's an excellent example of "the winner writes history", think about how it would be otherwise had the US been to the moon but than ultimately collapsed (for whatever reason): then USSR would establish throughout history-books etc. that their achievements were indeed countless and very valuable and that they had many more "firsts" and therefore they can be viewed as the winners of the race. As you see its all a matter of perception.

>>53970808
An interesting thought I just had: at some point in the future, we will have colonized Mars and there will be e.g. 12 billion people living on Earth and 3 billion people living on Mars. The Earthlings will have a government of their own which feels that it deserves more resources from Mars and that in fact the Marsians don't have negotiating power over interplanetary trade-deals and that ultimately all belongs to Earth as it is the source of humankind. While the Marsians, with their own government will try to establish what would in their eyes seem a "fairer" trade-deal as they are doing all the work and are living away from Earth. This crisis will eventually turn into the first interplanetary world-war by the year 2150. Much like ICBMs, interplanetary rockets and battleships will decent on each planet and countless civilians will die. Mark my words, screencap this, and pass on the word of our bitter future.

>>
>>53970948
You can't nuke Mars, the rocket would take a year to get there, you even have enough time to build an anti-ICBM system from scratch. You would have to land troops. What I envisage is that there will be different colonies run by different countries. Let's say the American one rebelled, murica sends space marines, they somehow manage to fight their way to the surface but oh no the "neutral" Chinese base is funding the rebels so merica loses. Literally the story of the Revolutionary War. If it's a whole united planet up in arms against you then that's even worse because you have to co-ordinate the invasion of an entire planet. I assume Mars will have a space fleet so it would be decided by a big battle in space. If the Martians won then they would be able to camp out in orbit around earth and nuke it to shit. Literally the story of the Pacific War.

Can you show me where there were aspirations with actual plans to put a man on a place beyond the moon after this point? Because I would wager that the finish line most certainly was defined, and the "space race" continues to refer solely to that particular part of history. There is no "grand space race", nor will an ignited race to say, Mars, be considered another "episode" of the race between the USSR and the US.

Landing on the moon and getting back again without your entire country collapsing is not an achivement?

You forgot the fact that millions of people in USSR were half starving, 15 percent of the countries budget was spent on winning the cold war (US spent 6%), USSR misused and wasted resources etc etc etc. Better get into history mate. US didnt go balls to the wall when it comes to making a point.

Yes we won because we bankrupt the shit out of the Soviet Union and after the moon landings those commieniggers never caught up in technology.

>millions of people in USSR were half starving

False

>15 percent of the countries budget was spent on winning the cold war

The US was isolated and already industrialized while the USSR had to rebuild from WW2 and was a agrarian society well into the 30s.

>USSR misused and wasted resources

Nice meme. Capitalist countries misuse and waste many times the resources the USSR did. They just had more resources to waste going into it. Not having to fight a civil ware and then a war of extermination of your own soil tends to do that. During it's 74 year history the USSR did not know a day of peace.
>>
>>53975963
Yeah the USSR was really efficient with resource management.

It was really smart of them to starve those niggers in Ukraine. More resources for people worthy of eating.

It sucks resources go to waste feeding niggers over here.

This was true.

Unless you had connections, don't expect to eat anything more varied than potatoes. Stores were empty.
Don't even fucking try, USSR was a dystopian desolate corrupted piece of shit that killed tens of millions and made hundreds of millions suffer for 60 years of stagnation.

>LE USSR starved Ukraine meme

The USSR sent 1.1 million tons of food aid to the Ukraine when they didn't have much food to feed themselves. Kulaks burning there fields and hording crops/droughts tend to cause famines. At the best of times the USSR's land isn't the most productive. Hence all the massive engineering projects to grow food.

>>53977595
The Buran was arguably better than the Shuttle. Read about it, i'm too tired to go into detail but it was more powerful, didn't have sketchy solid rocket boosters and didn't stress out the main engines by having them blast all the way to orbit. Some say it should be revived to take people to Mars, yes it was that powerful.

Don't ever do this in general, or you won't be able to enjoy media.

You have to go into movies with the assumption they'll be complete shit, that way you can only be surprised positively - never negatively.
