Abstract
A collection of trip reports from Western computer experts who visited the Soviet Union in the 1960s reveals details about interactions between these Westerners and their Soviet counterparts during the height of the Cold War. These previously unexplored first-hand perspectives help to illuminate how such interactions shaped and countered American perceptions of Soviet computing and the threats it posed to the West.
