The lunar landing was very much about catching up because the Soviets were kicking rear end. Then we decided to compete over who could scorch the Earth clean of life the most times over instead.

Cybersyn was cool but killed and the death of the Buran program due to the collapse of the USSR is incredibly depressing. It's a knockoff but better.

Look I'm sitting in a house with toxic drywall but in between the fatigue, nausea, headaches, and memory loss I feel so great about how advantageous it is for the market economy that its production was outsourced to a country with zero regulatory agencies.
