Film Lesson "The Right Stuff"

The film "The Right Stuff" was between U.S and the Soviet Union, they were competing with one another to build the best rocket. In this film it shows how Russia and U.S was trying to make better rocket than one another, they both wanted to have the best rocket. Russia was the first to send a rocket in space and when U.S found out about it they wanted to create their own rocket and send it in space. So the U.S decided to build their own rocket, however they wanted to build better rockets than the Soviet Union and rockets that will travel faster. The U.S build a lot of rockets but they fail , most of them went a little in the air but fall back, they didn't work that well. Some of them didn't even move at all. The U.S spent years to build these rockets and they try really hard before they build there first stable rocket and send it in space.

However this movie also shows how the U.S had to find guys that were strong enough to drive these rockets and they had to go through a lot of tests to prove that they were strong and would able to drive it. However the U.S wanted to send the first chimp into space and everyone was angry and disagree about the idea and think it was a stupid thing to send a chimp into space. However the U.S did send a chimp into space while the Soviet union send a man. Later the U.S send their first man into space and they became more advance as the years go by. They were the first that send a man to moon and set America flag on it.

In my opinion, I think the U.S were winning because they later began to build more advance rockets than the Soviet Union, they build rockets that could travel faster and also they were the first to send a man on moon. Some scenes that I remember from this movie were when the U.S started to build rockets and were testing them and most of them just fly a little and then would blow up. I also remember when the U.S were training a chimp to send in space and people were argry because they think it was an crazy idea. Something that was important for me to remember was that The Soviet Union was the first to send a rocket in space then the U.S later did.
