<prompt> Fumana lintlha tokomaneng e latelang mabapi le nalane ea lenaneo la sebaka.Nalane ea NASA  <response>: Instruction in English: Find information in the following document about the history of the space program. . Response in English: NASA, or The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, was established in 1958 by the U.S. government, in response to the Soviet Unions launch of the first artificial satellite, Sputnik. NASA was created to oversee and coordinate U.S. space exploration, aeronautics, and space science activities.One of NASAs first major achievements was Project Mercury, launched in 1959, which aimed to put an astronaut into Earths orbit. This goal was achieved in 1962 when astronaut John Glenn became the first American to orbit Earth.In 1961, President John F. Kennedy announced the goal of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to Earth by the end of the decade. This led to the development of the Apollo Program, which achieved this goal in 1969 when astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first men to walk on the Moon.After the Apollo program, NASA focused on developing the Space Shuttle program, which began operations in 1981. The Space Shuttle allowed for the reusable transportation of crew and cargo to and from low Earth orbit, and the construction of the International Space Station ISS.NASA has also been involved in multiple unmanned space missions, including the Voyager and Pioneer programs, which have explored the outer planets and beyond, and the Mars Exploration Rover missions, which have been exploring the surface of Mars since 2004.Currently, NASA is planning for future human missions to Mars, and the development of the Artemis program which aims to return humans to the Moon by 2024. .
