| The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, better known as NASA, was created in 1958. NASA conducts significant aerospace research and runs innovative space flight programs, including the shuttle program. Here, poised prior to launch in September 1988, the space shuttle Discovery awaits takeoff. The success of Discovery’s mission encouraged the United States to actively continue the space shuttle program following the destruction of the Challenger. | ||||||
