About this listen

In 1960, at the height of the Cold War, the battle between Communism and Free Enterprise was fierce, each side vying to prove its ideology as the superior form of governance for humanity. Propaganda flowed relentlessly as both factions sought to assert their dominance in a world teetering on the brink of nuclear war. Having lived through those tumultuous times, I can attest to the pervasive tension, but fortunately, we emerged without a hot conflict. Yet, the fundamental question lingered which system truly prevails? This story delves into that inquiry, reflecting on humanitys rapid ascent from solving earthly problems to yearning for the stars‚Aîan ambition fueled by almost religious fervor to populate the galaxy. Summary by Phil Chenevert and the author.
