Best Answer

President Kennedy gave the moving speech that rallied Americans to "send a man to the moon and return him safely to earth by the end of this decade" but his assassination prevented him from seeing his dream come true. President Nixon is the only president to send astronauts to the moon though many of the US Presidents have promised to return since the Apollo 17 mission ended our exploration of the moon.
