Answer: Answer from PLATO

Step-by-step explanation:

The author states that the Soviet Union’s launch of Sputnik caused the United States to begin investing in science, technology, and innovation. Sputnik’s successful launch caused this reaction in the United States because the Cold War led Americans to fear the possibility of the Soviet Union leading the world in science and technology. Rather than give in to fear or hide from challenge, the United States stepped up and made a commitment to science, math, and innovation.
