This huge federal funding for research and development gave rise to new industries and technologies, many of which could be used in business and industry and also in new consumer goods. Space and defense-related industries sprang up in the Southern and Western states, which grew rapidly.

What effect did the Russian sputnik have on the American people and on the American science program?

The successful launch of the Soviet sputnik had a galvanizing effect on the people and the science program of America. It was quite a shock to discover that the Soviets had surpassed America in their space technology, which could have serious military implications, in terms of intercontinental ballistic missiles, as well as other possible implications. We now know, for example, that reconnaissance satellites are also of great military importance, and so are GPS satellites. The US government immediately began an accelerated program of research and development of new space technology, which in due course resulted in the US moon landing in 1969, and many other great technological accomplishments. The USSR was never able to regain the lead it originally had.
