When the Soviet Union launched Sputnik on October 4, 1957, it set off the space race with the United States.
Both countries wanted to be the dominant country when it came to Space and for America, this meant changing educational priorities.
STEM became the focus as young people were encouraged to use their mind to help get America further into the stars.
America spend quite a lot of money to land the first man on the Moon and eventually moved on to other priorities.
The two reasons:
- Britain intercepted the Zimmerman Telegram
- Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare
Context/detail:
Public outrage in the US against the Germans swept the nation following the sinking of the British ocean liner, <em>Lusitania</em> -- but that happened before 1917. When a German U-boat (submarine) sank the Lusitania in May, 1915, over 1,000 persons were killed, including more than 100 Americans. The passenger liner was targeted by the Germans because they suspected weapons were being shipped to Britain in the cargo hold of the ship.
Germany managed to stave off American entry into the war at the time by pledging to stop submarine attacks. But a couple years later they resumed such attacks, and there was also an intercepted telegram (the "Zimmerman Telegram") that showed Germany was trying to secure Mexico as an ally against the United States.
In 1917, the US declared war on Germany in response.
