Dyneema vs. Spectra Same ?

I read that dyneema and spectra are the same. Spectra was just the USA name for dyneema. I find this hard to believe. Can someone clear this up for me. Thank you

This explained it all to me. It is different but not really different.

Here's an interview between Steve from GWTW and Daniel Prentice, kite designer and innovator of Spectra Kite Line. Daniel Prentice is the owner of Shanti.
