The Soviet Union launched the Sputnik 1 on October 4, 1957. It was the first satellite to orbit Earth and the first to ever be launched from Earth. This event is what led to the establishment of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA).
NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, was established in 1958 as a response to the Soviet Union's launch of the first artificial satellite, Sputnik. The name reflects its mission to oversee civilian space research and exploration in the United States.
The creation of NASA was sparked by the Soviet Union's successful launch of the satellite Sputnik in 1957. This event heightened Cold War competition and led the United States to prioritize space exploration and research, leading to the establishment of NASA in 1958.

When the Soviets launched their satellite, named "Sputnik", almost immediately the United States established the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (known as NASA) in July of 1958.
The National Aeronautics and Space Act (Pub.L. 85-568) is the United States federal statute that created the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
