What president established NASA?

President Dwight David Eisenhower did. He was the 34th president of the United States. I do not think he got much notice for it, as JFK did more missions with the program. JFK sent the first man on moon. At JKF's time, I think, there was more competition with the Soviets in the NASA program. But it is a stated fact that Eisenhower established it.
