Answer: The correct answer is D- It would be well worth it.

Explanation: On becoming President, John Kennedy decided that space was not a final frontier, but a new beginning. On taking office in 1961, he increased the budget for NASA right after Alan Shepherd became the first American to into space. Kennedy was quoted as saying, "I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to Earth." Although Kennedy wasn't alive to see it, we did it on July 20, 1969 when

Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon.
