Film Lesson: The Right Stuff

The Film "The Right Stuff" was about how The Russians were starting to get ahead of the americans by being the first to send a satellite into space. When the americans heard about it they were scared because they thought that who ever controlled space could control the world. They immediately started testing test pilots with college degrees to be the first man in space. While they got their space programs fired up they started getting there space crafts built. Over 6 months there was nothing but failures and lift offs that ended in shear disaster. However after months of training and planning they finally did it. They created a space ship that had 0 failures. The first american in space was a monkey. They sent up a monkey first for a test flight to insure that everything was o.k and good to go. The americans were the first to break the sound barrier at M.O.C.K 1 however 2 months later Russians beat them at M.O.C.K 2, totally destroying our record.
