President Kennedy made the statement in the box in 1961. What

message do you think he might have intended to send?

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. No single space project in this

period will be more impressive to mankind ...

-President John F. Kennedy

The United States is the only country that will ever be capable of

landing a man on the moon.

It is important to maintain the U. S. long-time reputation as the

leader in the space race.

If the United States cannot land a man on the moon within ten

years, the government should abandon the space program.

The United States can demonstrate its superiority to the Soviet

Union by sending a man to the moon.

    The United States can demonstrate its superiority to the Soviet Union by sending a man to the moon.

    Explanation:

    The "Apollo program" of the U. S. was a response to the early successes of the Soviet Union, especially when it comes to "outer space." Even before, a Cold War was already happening between the United States and the Soviet Union.

    The Apollo program was an opportunity for the Americans to prove themselves that they can demonstrate superiority to the Soviet Union when it comes to science and technology by sending a man to the moon. Thus, President Kennedy made a statement regarding the capability of the nation to achieve the goal. He wanted the nation to focus on the moon race and to add more budget to make it happen. In the end, they were indeed victorious.

    So, this explains the answer.
