The correct option is "c. launching Sputnik"

Sputnik 1, launched on October 4, 1957 by the Soviet Union, was the first artificial satellite in history. Sputnik 1 was the first of several satellites launched by the Soviet Union in its Sputnik program, most of them successful. Sputnik 2 followed, as the second satellite in orbit . The first failure was suffered by Sputnik 3.

The launch of this satellite opened the way to the spatial development of the USA and therefore the space race of both powers.

Nonviolent direct action also increased beginning with the 1961 Freedom Rides.

This led President Kennedy to send a comprehensive civil rights bill to the Congress shortly before his assassination. The bill was later signed by his successor President Johnson in 1964.

The three naval carriers would play and important role in other battles throughout the war.

The plan by the Japanese prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor was to perform a surprise-attack on the U.S. in which all of the U.S.'s major assets were destroyed; however, the several aircraft carriers that were not destroyed proved detrimental to the Japanese later on; their plan was based on crippling the U.S., but the U.S. was not entirely crippled.
