Soviet successes in space have produced a major revision in the image of the USSR and to some degree of the Soviet system, and lent greatly enhanced credibility to Soviet propaganda claims. The USSR, by appearing to have spectacularly overtaken the US in a field in which the US was very generally assumed to be first by a wide margin, is now able to present itself as fully comparable to the US and able to challenge it in any field it chooses]]> 2019-03-01 17:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962572 apatnaude1 https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962573 On October 4, 1957, a Soviet intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) launched Sputnik and the Space Age. This event startled the world, giving the impression that America was behind the Soviets in science and technology. Subsequent U.S. launch failures heightened that perception. The competition to build rockets now also became a competition to reach space. Americans were upset at being bested by their Cold War rival and fearful that the Soviets could soon use missiles to launch a surprise nuclear attack.]]> 2019-03-01 17:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962573 apatnaude1 https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962575 We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.]]> 2019-03-01 17:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962575 apatnaude1 https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962576 This is a breathtaking pace, and such a pace cannot help but create new ills as it dispels old, new ignorance, new problems, new dangers. Surely the opening vistas of space promise high costs and hardships, as well as high reward. ]]> 2019-03-01 17:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962576 apatnaude1 https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962578 The areas in which NASA-developed technologies benefit society can broadly be defined as: health and medicine, transportation, public safety, consumer goods, environmental and agricultural resources, computer technology and industrial productivity.

Space and related industries are generating new demands in investment and skilled personnel, and this city and this State, and this region, will share greatly in this growth. ]]> 2019-03-01 17:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962581 apatnaude1 https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962583 We set sail on this new sea because there is new knowledge to be gained, and new rights to be won, and they must be won and used for the progress of all people. For space science, like nuclear science and all technology, has no conscience of its own. Whether it will become a force for good or ill depends on man, and only if the United States occupies a position of pre-eminence can we help decide whether this new ocean will be a sea of peace or a new terrifying theater of war. ]]> 2019-03-01 17:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962583 apatnaude1 https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336962585 The growth of our science and education will be enriched by new knowledge of our universe and environment, by new techniques of learning and mapping and observation, by new tools and computers for industry, medicine, the home as well as the school.

If it was strictly kept to helping the country and it's citizens it would have been 100% a good idea. It helped us to make new jobs which made the unemployed rates decrease. The employment and technology helped Americans become more hopeful for the future of the United States.

It allowed for the best and smartest people the US had at the time to come together and create new ideas to improve the US. It also created something for all of the US to root for together and created a way for the US to unite over a common ground/ topic. The US also gained an opportunity to put the USSR in it's place through competing with them in the Space Race. As the US and USSR have historically been enemies, it was likely helpful for them to have a source of competition that was generally a peaceful one.]]> 2019-03-01 18:19:26 UTC https://padlet.com/apatnaude1/jir3zlr6msc0/wish/336972332
