the store and this mission was the symbolic end of the space race that started when russia launched sputnik in beer the first artificial satellite and then both countries were had tense relations to see who could conquer this new frontier and of course this was the first time these two superpowers worked together in fact they actually had to engineer specific device. so these two spacecraft could fit together they were designed separately not to work together so that was one feat of engineering that had to be accomplished but also it was the first time that these two cold war rivals had to train together and work together for more than six months so that they could accomplish their mission in space when the two crafts actually dock it was on the seventeenth of july they there was a three hour period where they waited to make sure everything was ok then they open the hatches and shook hands and then spent forty four hours together conducting experiments as well as eating together and even joking the russian cosmonauts wrote vodka on the side of their food to trick the american astronauts int

between the soviet union and the united states up until that point the two or since the launch of sputnik rather the two countries were fiercely battling each other for control over space and this was the mission that ended that conflict and started a cooperate of an era in space in fact the two space agencies had to build a special module that would connect these two craft one designed by the united states the apollo module and the soyuz module together so that they could actually dock in space and it would be two teams the team of three with deeks lady tom stafford and then also vance brand from united states and then in the united states cuba softly and off from the u.s.s.r. they all work together for six months and then they went in space on july seventeenth they docked and spent forty four hours together conducting experiments eating together and doing things together is specifically one of the things that they did was they actually use that the apollo module from the united states and maneuvered it in front of the sun so that the u.s.s.r. could take pictures of the sun for scientifi

our strength and promoting technological innovation you know when we won the soviet union launched sputnik the way we react is with a major federal investment in aerospace technology to go on to win the space race you know we're falling behind japan in the semiconductor industry we made a strategic federal investment in this industry that's what we need to do today now that's not in the agenda though the agenda has just been focused primarily on putting a cap on carbon we need to do that we need to get a price on carbon but what's really been. this thing is this federal investment component in clean energy technologies now you look at the polls and you'll find that the most popular form of energy policy out there is the raise the federal investment in clean energy also seventy percent public support there's less of public support for cap and trade so what the opportunity that was missed unfortunately was the really put this apollo type project at the front and center of the agenda frame it that way really you know compared to these past and vestments we made put out of the front center and
