The
National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), which was
established in 1958, is the agency responsible for the public space
program of the United States of America. It is also responsible for
long-term civilian and military aerospace research.

Following is from the NASA website:
President Dwight D. Eisenhower established the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration in 1958, partially in response to
the Soviet Union's launch of the first artificial satellite. NASA grew
out of the National Advisory Committee on Aeronautics, which had been
researching flight technology for more than 40 years.
President John F. Kennedy focused NASA and the nation on sending
astronauts to the moon by the end of the 1960s. Through the Mercury and
Gemini projects, NASA developed the technology and skills it needed for
the journey. On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the
first of 12 men to walk on the moon, meeting Kennedy's challenge.
In the meantime, NASA was continuing the aeronautics research pioneered
by NACA. It also conducted purely scientific research and worked on
developing applications for space technology, combining both pursuits in
developing the first weather and communications satellites.
After Apollo, NASA focused on developing America's ready access to
space: the space shuttle. First launched in 1981, the Space Shuttle has
had 112 successful flights, though two crews have been lost. In 2000,
the United States and Russia established permanent human presence in
space aboard the international space station, a multinational project
representing the work of 16 nations.
NASA has also continued its scientific research. In 1997, Mars
Pathfinder became the first in a fleet of spacecraft that will explore
Mars in the next decade, as we try to determine if life ever existed
there. The Terra and Aqua satellites are flagships of a different fleet,
this one in Earth orbit, which is designed to help us understand how our
home world changes. NASA's aeronautics teams are focused on improved
aircraft travel and making it safer and less polluting.
Throughout its history, NASA has conducted or funded research that has
led to numerous improvements to life here on Earth
