“Shortly after the Soviets lunched the Sputnik satellite in 1957, the U.S. government seriously considered a nuclear strike against the Moon in order to intimidate Russia. A missile carrying an atom bomb would have been launched from an undisclosed location and then detonated on impact. Preparations were made for a missile launch in 1959, but the program was quietly scrapped. What is truly strange is that the plan to nuke the moon was supposedly inspired by the need to catch up with the Soviets in the space race. Yet there’s evidence that Washington actually spotted Moscow a lead by allowing the Russians to launch the first satellite.”
