The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was formed in 1970 in response to growing concerns about environmental pollution and the need for coordinated federal efforts to protect the environment. NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, was established in 1958 to lead the United States' civilian space program and conduct space research, particularly in response to the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik. Both agencies serve distinct but significant roles in advancing public welfare and scientific knowledge.
