Space Race Cold War Horizons Retro Poster | 80s Synthwave Wall Art

Cold War Horizons reimagines one of the most defining rivalries of the 20th century—the race to conquer the stars—through the lens of 1980s Synthwave aesthetics.

Two astronauts, one American and one Soviet, face each other with steely determination as a rocket ignites between them, soaring into the neon-lit cosmos. The blazing retro-futurist sunset frames the scene, symbolising both the dawn of a new era and the heated competition that defined the Cold War.

The real Space Race, beginning in the late 1950s, became a dramatic stage for technological prowess and political dominance. The Soviet Union launched Sputnik in 1957 and sent the first human, Yuri Gagarin, into orbit in 1961. The United States answered with Apollo, culminating in the moon landing of 1969. Even into the 1980s, this rivalry influenced culture, politics, and the aesthetics of futurism.
