    You can downvote but it will still be just at true.

    No, it isn’t. Space Shuttle for one thing, many Telescopes, Sat’s…and so on. Russia hasn’t done shit. Even the ISS Modules from Russia are crap and the ones that make the most problems.

      The space shuttle was 30 years after the space race homie. Also incorrect, NASA itself disagrees that it was Russia alone at fault.
