The United States was considered as a world power in space technology and the development of missiles. However, the launch of Sputnik I and the fact that one of the first two launch attempts failed, shook the American public. A crisis therefore occurred, called the "Sputnik crisis", due to the imminent threat of the Soviet Union. This event boosted the space race that led to the launch of the first human being into space and the landing of the first man on the moon (1969) through the Apollo Program.

Under the Articles of Confederation, individual states could ignore agreements the Congress made with other countries. This meant that - every state had to agree on a law before it was passed.

The correct option is D.

Following the United States' declaration of independence from Great Britain, the national government's powers were codified in the Articles of Confederation.

The preamble, thirteen articles, the conclusion, and a section listing the signatories make up the Articles of Confederation. The separate articles specify the guidelines for the central government of the confederation's present and future functions.

According to the Articles, the national Congress, which had the authority to declare war and peace, negotiate economic and diplomatic agreements with other nations, and settle disputes between the states, maintained all political powers that were not expressly delegated to the states. The agreement further states that "the Union shall be permanent" and that "its terms shall be inviolably obeyed by every state."
