The Soviet Union (now Russia) and the United States of America were the first, who had developed capsules and probes and had brought them into space. Later other countries or union of countries (Germany, Japan, Great Britain, France, Italy, Europe, etc.) developed and sometimes launched similar vehicles as demonstrators, often in order to improve their competence in space transportation technology.
