The Cold War between the U.S. And the U.S.S.R. Formed the backdrop of the Apollo program, as the two superpowers jockeyed for.

Under premier Nikita Khrushchev, the Soviet Union had succeeded in launching, the first artificial satellite, and sending the first man into orbit. Reeling from a succession of Soviet space firsts, President John F. Kennedy promised that the U.S.

Would be first to send humans to the moon and return them to Earth before the end of the 1960s. On July 20, 1969, that promise came true as Americans claimed victory when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon, witnessed by some on Earth. Sergei Khrushchev, Nikita's son, recently looked back and remembered what it felt like to be on the Soviet side. (These days, Khrushchev, 74, is a fellow at in Providence, R.I., where he spoke in his office, surrounded by Soviet memorabilia.) [ An edited transcript of the interview follows.] Where were you when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon? I remember the moon landing very well. I was on vacation with my friends, most of whom worked at the design bureau.

There was also an officer from the KGB. We were in Ukraine, in Chernobyl.

It was exactly the place where they later built the [infamous] nuclear power station. The KGB officer had just returned from Africa, and he had brought a small telescope. So we looked through the telescope, but we didn’t see any moon landing! So it was still questionable to us!

But if you remember [back then] when Americans spoke of the first man in space, they were always talking of 'the first American in space' [not ]. The same feeling was prevalent in Russia.
