What was president Kennedy's goal blokade os cuba?

The Soviet Union had decided to base some intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBMs) armed with nuclear warheads in Cuba; if fired, these missiles would start hitting targets in the US within a few minutes, which would be too short a time for anyone to react. Kennedy chose to institute a naval blockade of all shipments into Cuba to prevent these missiles from arriving in Cuba. Kennedy's immediate goal was to eliminate the threat of imminent nuclear attack. His longer-range goal was to eliminate the longer-term threat from Cuba. He got the missiles removed, but was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald (a possible Soviet agent and known defector) before he was able to have Castro overthrown.

What effect did the Russian sputnik have on the American people and on the American science program?

The successful launch of the Soviet sputnik had a galvanizing effect on the people and the science program of America. It was quite a shock to discover that the Soviets had surpassed America in their space technology, which could have serious military implications, in terms of intercontinental ballistic missiles, as well as other possible implications. We now know, for example, that reconnaissance satellites are also of great military importance, and so are GPS satellites. The US government immediately began an accelerated program of research and development of new space technology, which in due course resulted in the US moon landing in 1969, and many other great technological accomplishments. The USSR was never able to regain the lead it originally had.


Why did the Soviet Union place missiles in cuba?

It was a direct threat to the United States - and a power move to show they could place missles within 90 miles of their border.There are actually 5 possible reasons:1. To Bargain With The USA-Krushchev may have put them there so that he had something against the USA and good agree on removing them in return for some American concessions.2. To Test The USA-The missiles could have been put there to see how string the Americans really were, whether they would back off or face up. The USSR may have wanted to test out Kennedy3. To Trap The USA-The missiles could've been a trap and Krushchev may have wanted the Americans to find them and be drawn into a nuclear war. He didn't even try to hide them.4. To Defend Cuba-The missiles could have been their to genuinely defend Cuba5. To Get The Upper Hand In The Arms Race-The missiles were put there so that the Soviet Union was at least level with the USA in the Arms Race. With their missiles in Cuba and America's missiles in Turkey, it was less likely the USA would ever launch a 'first strike' against the USSR.


How did scientists send a vehicle out into space?

The first rockets to reach space were the German A4 (aka V-2) ballistic missiles of World War II. But the first object to reach a stable orbit was the Soviet Union's Sputnik 1 satellite in October, 1957.Rocket scientists began to develop powerful, liquid-fueled motors in the 1920s, and when they were powerful enough to accelerate past escape velocity (about 25,000 mph), they were able to either achieve orbit or to actually move away from the Earth into outer space.Eventually, NASA's manned Apollo spacecraft reached the Moon (1968 to 1972), and in 1977, the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft began their long flights past other planets and into interstellar space.
