The United States military space program began at the end of World
War II when a few people realized that space flight was now
achievable and could be employed to military advantage. Science and
technology in the form of advance radar, jet propulsion, ballistic
rockets such as the V-2, and nuclear energy had dramatically
altered the nature of war. Army Air Forces Commanding General Henry
Arnold wrote in November 1845 that a space ship "is all but
practicable today" and could be build "within the foreseeable
future" The following month the Air Force Scientific Advisory Group
concluded that long-range rockets were technically feasible and
that satellites were a "definite possibility."
