Focusing on the media's role during the Space Race, this volume examines various forms of visual culture, including films, documentaries, and print media, to explore how they shaped public perception across the Iron Curtain. It highlights the transnational exchange of imagery between East and West from 1955 to 1975, presenting the Space Race as a global narrative intertwined with Cold War dynamics. The analysis reveals how these representations contributed to a shared yet divided historical understanding of the era.
