[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly I used to think this but I’ve come around. Now I think about it actually as being important to keeping the Cold War cold. The testosterone-y war monger “mine is bigger than yours” bros had a place to point their energy to that wasn’t actually blowing people up. [/quote] This is a very good and understated point. That said, these "bros" wanted to control space in order to weaponize it before the Other Guy. It was basically an effort to dominate another field of battle, to have the first mover advantage. But yeah, it kept them away from the nuclear red button and distracted their energies elsewhere.[/quote]
