  Today the Space Race is widely viewed poignantly and fondly as a race to the Moon that culminated with Apollo 11 “winning” the Race for the United States. In fact, it encompassed a much broader range of competition between the Soviet Union and the United States that affected everything from military technology to successfully launching satellites that could land on Mars or orbit other planets in the Solar System. Moreover, the notion that America “won” the Space Race at the end of the 1960s overlooks just how competitive the Space Race actually was in launching people into orbit, as well as the major contributions the Space Race influenced in leading to today’s International Space Station and continued space exploration. 
  	In fact, the Soviet Union had spent much of the 1950s leaving the United States in its dust (and rocket fuel). President Eisenhower and other Americans who could view Soviet rockets in the sky were justifiably worried that Soviet satellites in orbit could soon be spying on them, or, even worse, dropping nuclear bombs on them. And in 1960, when Eisenhower’s administration began planning and funding for the famous Apollo program that would land the first men on the Moon in 1969, the Soviet Union was already thinking further ahead to Mars. 
  	During the 1960s, NASA would spend tens of billions on the Apollo missions, the most expensive peacetime program in American history to that point, and even though Apollo 11 was only one of almost 20 Apollo missions, it was certainly the crown jewel. only one of nearly 20 Apollo missions conducted by NASA. And to make Apollo 11 a success, it would take nearly a decade of planning by government officials, hard work by NASA scientists, intense training by the astronauts, and several missions preceding Apollo 11. It also cost over $20 billion, making the Apollo program the most expensive peacetime program in American history at the time.

  Bagratids The: The History and...

  At the height of the Roman Empire, the Romans sought to preserve their influence in Greater Armenia by employing foreign kings as proxies. In contrast, the Armenian people and their rulers strived to emancipate themselves from Roman hegemony and the dominance of their allies, aspiring to reinstate the sovereignty of the Greater Armenian Kingdom while reestablishing a mutually beneficial military-political alliance with the neighboring Parthian Kingdom.  
  The early medieval history of Armenia is characterized by a complex interplay of external pressures and internal resilience as the region navigated the competing influences of the Byzantine and Sassanid Empires. By the sixth century, Armenia had become a contested frontier, its strategic location making it a focal point for both empires and an emerging target for Arab expansion in subsequent centuries. Amid this geopolitical turbulence, the Armenian nobility—particularly the Nakharar (Princes) class—played a pivotal role in maintaining a semblance of political and cultural autonomy. Among these noble families, the Bagratunis rose to prominence, adeptly maneuvering through periods of foreign domination to establish the Bagratuni (Bagratid) dynasty in 885.
