Best Answer
  • The Apollo 1 (AS-204) accident that killed astronauts White, Grissom, and Chaffee resulted in substantial changes in the program with resultant impacts on the cost and schedules.
  • Nestle developed Tang and Space Food Sticks.
  • Computer science and wireless communication technology took a huge leap
  • Insulation technology was boosted.
  • Radar and satellite technology improved dramatically.
  • Plastics and metal technology improved.
  • The US rose as the dominant world power when the Soviet Union collapsed in financial ruin as a result of their unfunded spending trying to fathom and combat President Reagan's "Star Wars Missile Defense System" (a bit of speculative fiction based on the real successes of the US Space Program and Apollo).
