NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, was established on July 29, 1958. It was created as a response to the Soviet Union's advancements in space technology, particularly after the launch of Sputnik. While there isn't a single "founder" of NASA, T. Keith Glennan was its first administrator. He played a significant role in shaping the agency's early direction and policies.
