Taken From A NASA Press Release Dated 3 January 1962 Ever since Explorer 1, the first U.S. satellite, was orbited on January 31, 1958, the nation has been expanding its space program. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) conducts the peaceful, scientific exploration of space with both manned and unmanned vehicles. Hundreds of scientists and many thousands of engineers, technicians and other workers in NASA, industry, and universities collaborates with 55 other countries in projects such as tracking satellites, training research workers, and collecting and distributing scientific data. |
