“Sputnik Mania” led the United States to increase defense spending and establish a crash program to enhance science education and military research. In 1958, Congress created the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to coordinate research and development related to outer space. Finally, in 1958, Congress, with Eisenhower’s endorsement, enacted the National Defense Education Act (NDEA), which authorized massive federal grants to colleges and universities to enhance education and research in mathematics, science, and modern languages, as well as for student loans and fellowships. The NDEA provided more financial aid to higher education than any other previous legislation.

Why was the "war between the states" or the "war of the rebellion" called the first modern war? what were the major differences
sesenic [268]
Many historians might argue this point....   First modern war some consider was the Franco - Prussian war.  

The massive amount of technology used.  
Minnie balls, lever action guns, Gatling guns, trains, telegraph, air balloons.  

North had more people, machines, and factories.  They fought with one arm behind their back.  Yale or Harvard had the row club all four years of the Civil War.  

South had more mountains, but relied on other countries to supply their arms. Relied on cotton.  Thought English would join for that reason.  However, England found other countries to buy from.  

I suggest watching the Ken Burns Civil War videos.  Long but very informative.
