2  Mission is to pioneer the future in:  Space exploration.  Scientific discovery.  Aeronautics research.

3  President Dwight D. Eisenhower established in 1958.  Grew out of the National Advisory Committee on Aeronautic (NACA)  Flight technology for more than 40 years.

4  President John F. Kennedy and the Mercury and Gemini projects.  Sending astronauts to the moon.  On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first of 12 men to walk on the moon.

7  Aeronautic:pioneers and proves new flight technologies that improve our ability to explore and which have practical applications on Earth.  Exploration Systems: creates capabilities for sustainable human and robotic exploration.

8  Space Operations: provides critical enabling technologies for much of the rest of NASA through the space shuttle, the International Space Station and flight support.  Science: explores the Earth, solar system and universe beyond; charts the best route of discovery; and reaps the benefits of Earth and space exploration for society.
