The National Defense Education Act was created in response to the launch of Sputnik I.

Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The National Defense Education Act (NDEA) was passed into law on 2nd September 1958, providing money to U.S. academic institutions throughout all grades

It provided extra financing to American academic institutions (schools, universities and research initiatives).

The Act was established directly following the release by the Soviet Union of the first-ever Sputnik satellite.

It was a general sense of failure and a failure especially in comparison to the Soviet Union; it was designed as a push to carry on researching and winning the space among these two contending countries.
