Would the Soviets still be around in 2018? Would anything be different other than the history books?

The movie would make sure we knew it was the Soviets and not “”mankind”

It wouldn’t change the fact that they went bankrupt, and probably would have exacerbated that so the collapse was sooner.

The actual landing would be meaningless in this discussion but the fact that they would have had to advance their technology faster than us could absolutely mean a totally different outcome IMO

There was really not much of a space race. It was much much more an cooperative effort. (We have to both keep a look out for those pesky hostile aliens the greys keep warning us about

Isn't it rumored that they did make it there first?

They just didn't stick the landing.
