== Sejarah ==
[[Berkas:NASA Worm logo.svg|thumb|Logo NASA tipe "cacing"]]
Presiden [[Eisenhower]] mendirikan NASA pada tahun [[1958]] dengan tujuan untuk mementingkan kebutuhan masyarakat sipil dibandingkan dengan militer, dan digunakan sebagai program perdamaian dalam ilmu keluarangkasaan. Undang-Undang Aeronautika dan Keluarangkasaan Nasional disahkan pada [[29 Juli]] [[1958]], menggantikan organisasi sebelumnya, Komite Penasihat Aeronautika Nasional. Badan ini resmi beroperasi pada [[1 Oktober]] [[1958]].

===Space Race===
:''For additional background, please see the [[Space Race]] article''

[[Berkas:Mercury 3.jpg|thumb|212px|right|[[May 5]], [[1961]] launch of 
Redstone rocket and NASA's Mercury 3 capsule ''[[Freedom 7]]'' with 
[[Alan Shepard Jr.]] on the United States' first human flight into 
sub-orbital space. (Atlas rockets were used to launch Mercury's orbital 
missions.)]]

Following the [[Soviet space program]]'s launch of the world's first 
man-made satellite (''[[Sputnik 1]]'') on [[October 4]], [[1957]], the 
attention of the United States turned toward its own fledgling space 
efforts. The [[Congress of the United States|U.S. Congress]], alarmed by
 the perceived threat to American security and technological leadership,
 urged immediate and strong action; President [[Dwight D. Eisenhower]] 
and his advisers counseled more deliberate measures. Several months of 
debate produced agreement that a new federal agency was needed to 
conduct all nonmilitary activity in space.

On [[July 29]], [[1958]], President Eisenhower signed the National 
Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 establishing the National Aeronautics 
and Space Administration (NASA). When it began operations on [[October 
1]], [[1958]], NASA consisted mainly of the four laboratories and some 
8,000 employees of the government's 46-year-old research agency for 
aeronautics, the [[National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics]] (NACA).

NASA's early programs were research into manned spaceflight, and were 
conducted under the pressure of the competition between the USA and the 
[[USSR]] (the [[Space Race]]) that existed during the [[Cold War]]. The 
[[Mercury program]], initiated in [[1958]], started NASA down the path 
of human space exploration with missions designed to discover simply if 
man could survive in [[outer space|space]]. On [[May 5]], [[1961]], 
astronaut [[Alan B. Shepard Jr.]] became the first American in space 
when he piloted [[Mercury 3|''Freedom 7'']] on a 15-minute suborbital 
flight. [[John Glenn]] became the first American to orbit the Earth on 
[[February 20]], [[1962]] during the 5-hour flight of [[Mercury 
6|''Friendship 7'']].

===Apollo program===

Once Mercury proved that manned spaceflight was possible, the [[Apollo 
program]] was launched to try to do interesting work in space and 
possibly put men around (but not on) the [[Moon]]. The direction of the 
Apollo program was radically altered following President [[John F. 
Kennedy]]'s announcement on [[May 25]], [[1961]] that the [[United 
States]] should commit itself to "landing a man on the Moon and 
returning him safely to the [[Earth]]" by 1970. Thus Apollo became a 
program to land men on the Moon. The [[Gemini program]] was started 
shortly thereafter to provide an interim spacecraft to prove techniques 
needed for the now much more complicated Apollo missions.

[[Berkas:Aldrin Apollo 11.jpg|thumb|175px|left|[[Buzz Aldrin]] walks on 
the surface of the Moon during [[Apollo 11]].]]

After eight years of preliminary missions, including NASA's first loss 
of astronauts with the [[Apollo 1]] launch pad fire, the Apollo program 
achieved its goals with [[Apollo 11]] which landed [[Neil Armstrong]] 
and [[Buzz Aldrin]] on the moon's surface on [[July 20]], [[1969]] and 
returned them to Earth safely on [[July 24]]. Armstrong's first words 
upon stepping out of the [[Apollo Lunar Module|''Eagle'' lander]] 
captured the momentousness of the occasion: "That's one small step for 
[a] man, one giant leap for mankind." Ten more men would [[list of lunar
 astronauts|set foot on the Moon]] by the end of the Apollo program in 
December 1972.

NASA had won the space race, and in some senses this left it without 
direction, or at the very least without the public attention and 
interest that was necessary to guarantee large budgets from Congress. 
After [[Lyndon Johnson]] left office NASA lost its main political 
supporter, Werner Von Braun was moved to a position lobbying in 
Washington and plans for ambitious follow-on projects to construct a 
space station, establish a lunar base and launch a manned mission to 
[[Mars]] by [[1990]] were proposed but with the end to procurement of 
[[Saturn]] and Apollo hardware there was no capability to support these.
 The near-disaster of [[Apollo 13]], where an oxygen explosion nearly 
doomed all three astronauts, helped to recapture attention and concern, 
but although missions up to [[Apollo 20]] were planned, [[Apollo 17]] 
was the last mission to fly under the Apollo banner. The program ended 
because of budget cuts (in part due to the [[Vietnam War]]) and the 
desire to develop a reusable space vehicle.

===Other early missions===

Although the vast majority of NASA's budget has been spent on human 
spaceflight, there have been many unmanned missions instigated by the 
space agency. In [[1962]] the [[Mariner 2]] mission was launched and 
became the first spacecraft to make a flyby of another planet – in this 
case [[Venus (planet)|Venus]]. The [[Ranger program|Ranger]], [[Surveyor
 program|Surveyor]], and [[Lunar Orbiter]] missions were essential to 
assessing lunar conditions before attempting manned Apollo landings. 
Later, the two [[Viking program|Viking probes]] landed on the surface of
 [[Mars (planet)|Mars]] and sent color images back to Earth, but perhaps
 more impressive were the [[Pioneer program|Pioneer]] and particularly 
[[Voyager program|Voyager]] missions that visited [[Jupiter 
(planet)|Jupiter]], [[Saturn (planet)|Saturn]], [[Uranus 
(planet)|Uranus]] and [[Neptune (planet)|Neptune]] and sent back science
 and color images from all.

Having lost the space race, the [[Soviet Union]] had, along with the 
USA, changed its approach. On [[July 17]], [[1975]] an Apollo craft 
(finding a new use after the cancellation of [[Apollo 18]]) was docked 
to the Soviet Soyuz 19 space craft. Although the Cold War would last 
many more years, this was a critical point in NASA's history and much of
 the international co-operation in space exploration that exists today 
has its genesis here. America's first space station, [[Skylab]], 
occupied NASA from the end of Apollo until the late 1970s.

===Shuttle era===

[[Berkas:Shuttle.jpg|thumb|175px|right|[[Space Shuttle Columbia]], 
[[April 12]] 1981]]

The [[space shuttle]] became the major focus of NASA in the late 1970s 
and the 1980s. Planned to be a frequently launchable and mostly reusable
 vehicle, four space shuttles were built by [[1985]]. The first to 
launch, [[Space Shuttle Columbia|''Columbia'']] did so on [[April 12]], 
[[1981]].

The shuttle was not all good news for NASA – flights were much more 
expensive than initially projected, and even after the [[1986]] 
[[STS-51-L|''Challenger'' disaster]] highlighted the risks of space 
flight, the public again lost interest as missions appeared to become 
mundane.

Nonetheless, the shuttle has been used to launch milestone projects like
 the [[Hubble Space Telescope]] (HST). The HST was created with a 
relatively small budget of $2 billion but has continued operation since 
[[1990]] and has delighted both scientists and the public. Some of the 
images it has returned have become near-legendary, such as the 
groundbreaking [[Hubble Deep Field]] images. The HST is a joint project 
between [[European Space Agency|ESA]] and NASA, and its success has 
paved the way for greater collaboration between the agencies.

In [[1995]] Russian-American interaction would again be achieved as the 
Shuttle-[[Mir]] missions began, and once more a Russian craft (this time
 a full-fledged space station) docked with an American vehicle. This 
cooperation continues to the present day, with Russian and America the 
two biggest partners in the largest space station ever built – the 
[[International Space Station]] (ISS). The strength of their cooperation
 on this project was even more evident when NASA began relying on 
Russian launch vehicles to service the ISS following the [[2003]] 
[[Space Shuttle Columbia disaster|''Columbia'' disaster]], which 
grounded the shuttle fleet for well over a year.

Costing over one hundred billion dollars, it has been difficult at times
 for NASA to justify the ISS. The [[population]] at large have 
historically been hard to impress with details of scientific experiments
 in space, preferring news of grand projects to exotic locations. Even 
now, the ISS cannot accommodate as many scientists as planned, 
especially with the space shuttle out of use until March 2005 at the 
earliest, bringing expansion to a halt and limiting it to a two person 
crew.

During much of the 1990s, NASA was faced with shrinking annual budgets 
due to Congressional belt-tightening in Washington, DC. In response, 
NASA's ninth administrator, [[Daniel S. Goldin]], pioneered the "faster,
 better, cheaper" approach that enabled NASA to cut costs while still 
delivering a wide variety of aerospace programs ([[Discovery Program]]).
 That method was criticized and re-evaluated following the twin losses 
of [[Mars Climate Orbiter]] and [[Mars Polar Lander]] in 1999.

===Mars and beyond===

Probably the most publicly-inspiring mission of recent years has been 
the [[Mars Pathfinder]] mission of [[1997]]. Newspapers around the world
 carried images of the lander dispatching its own rover, Sojourner, to 
explore the surface of Mars in a way never done before at any 
extra-terrestrial location. Less publicly acclaimed but performing 
science from 1997 to date ([[as of 2004|2004]]) has been the [[Mars 
Global Surveyor]] orbiter. Since 2001, the orbiting [[Mars Odyssey]] has
 been searching for evidence of past or present water and volcanic 
activity on the red planet.

On [[Januari 14]], [[2004]], ten days after the landing of [[Mars 
Exploration Rover Mission|Mars Exploration Rover]] ''[[MER-A|Spirit]]'',
 President [[George W. Bush]] announced the [[Vision for Space 
Exploration]]. Humankind will return to the moon by [[2020]], and set up
 outposts as a testbed and potential resource for future missions. The 
[[space shuttle]] will be retired in [[2010]] and the [[Crew Exploration
 Vehicle]] will replace it by [[2014]], capable of both docking with the
 ISS and leaving the Earth's orbit. The future of the ISS is somewhat 
uncertain – construction will be completed, but beyond that is less 
clear. The [[Centennial Challenges]], technology prizes for 
non-government teams, were established in [[2004]].

===Criticisms===

Some commentators such as Mark Wade note that NASA has suffered from a 
'stop-start' approach to its manned programmes. The Apollo spacecraft 
and Saturn family of launch vehicles were abandoned in 1970 after 
billions of dollars had been spent on their development. In 2004 the 
U.S. Government proposed eventually replacing the Shuttle with a [[Crew 
Exploration Vehicle]] that would allow the agency to again conduct 
manned visits to the Moon. Despite the reduction of its budget following
 project Apollo, NASA has maintained a top heavy bureacracy resulting in
 inflated costs and compromised hardware.
