What event increased us spending on education and technology in cold war?
The Soviet launch of the Sputnik satellite.
What did landing on the moon have to do with the cold war?
In 1960 the "space race" began between the US and Soviets. Both worked to get to the moon first and in 1969 the US landed on the moon. The Soviets never have landed. The space race was just another outcome of the Cold War. The ability to launch a rocket has military advantages whether it has a payload for space or for military uses.
What was the Soviet Unions goal after World War 2?
There was the Space Race and the Cold War, all of which the US won. The Soviet Union did accomplish many firsts in space such as the first ever launching of a satellite, but as the race neared it's end, US technicians and scientists were working feverishly on a spacecraft that would be successful in taking the first ever humans to the moon. Basing the whole Space Race on that, you could say that the US has won the Space Race. Onto the Cold War, the Soviet Union spent too much money on weapons technology, producing the MiGs you see in the sky today but doing so made the economy an unbalanced infrastructure and the whole Soviet Union just collapsed, due to lack of economical stability. Funny, the Soviet Union needed to spend most of its money to KEEP UP with the US while the US still retained a well-balanced economy and succeeded in bringing about the best weapons, aircraft, and ships today!
Why did stalin want the US and britain to launch a second front in the west?
There was already a war launched in the west. The British were fighting the Germans.
If Britain and us went to war who would win?
That would surely depend on who managed to launch the first nuclear missles!! Otherwise, despite being British I would think it would be the US. Although I believe the British Forces are better fighters, the US has a population 4 times greater than Britain so has more men/women at their disposal. Would also depend on where fighting was taking place i.e on who's terratory.
