Because back in 1960, it was not known if man could travel into space or if he could get to the moon. It took the US a few years to figure out how best to do it. Plus, they had to build a world wide network of tracking and communication stations to be able to fly to the moon. There was a lot to be done, and NASA had just formed the year before. They had to figure out what to do and how to do it.
