That's pretty much the way I understand it. I'm sure the Soviets could have landed a cosmonaut on the moon in the early-to-mid 70s, but why bother? It would actually look lame! Hey! We can put men on the moon, too!
There is an effort to put the first woman on the moon, but as far as I can tell, the US is the only country concerned with that. Too bad, because that title has been there for the taking for over 50 years now.
