The launch of Sputnik 1 by the Soviet Union on October 4, 1957, marked the beginning of the space age and intensified the Cold War competition between the U.S. and the USSR. In response, President Eisenhower established the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and increased funding for science and education, particularly in math and science, to ensure that the U.S. would not fall behind in technological advancements. Eisenhower's actions aimed to bolster national security and restore public confidence in American capabilities. The event ultimately spurred a significant focus on space exploration and research in the following decades.
