American Technology In 1957, the Soviet Union launched the first artificial earth satellite Sputnik. Accordingly, the United States established the Advanced Research Projects Authority (ARPA) within the Department of Defense (DoD) to establish US science and technology applicable to the military field. In 1962 RAND Paul Baran of RAND Corporation was asked by the US Air Force to study how to maintain command and control of missiles and bombers after nuclear attack. This is a military research network that can survive nuclear attacks and can be distributed if there is a place (city) in the United States.
American technology, values, politics, and military suddenly are on the verge of confidence. Science, technology and engineering were completely redesigned and received a lot of money with Sputnik's shadow. Russian satellites are basically forcing the United States to prioritize new national priorities in research science and it has led to the development of microelectronics technology used in today's notebooks, personal computers and handheld computers ing. Many of the basic technologies of modern life including the Internet are caused by the accelerated pace of applied research caused by satellites.
The Internet began in America. The fact that it depends on American technology makes it possible for the United States to "globalize" American culture and combine American business culture with it. The initial default language on the Web is "American" (English). Originally, thoughts of Americans had spread throughout the network, as the network population and the Internet population increased, the virtual reality of physical reality began to emerge. The previous language and alphabet was a natural barrier to the spread of the idea of "American civilization" in the West. Because of linguistic and cultural barriers, countries with similar experiences, experiences and problems in Japan, India and the Americas can not easily obtain them. As more and more people become online "global citizens", they need to understand and talk to Americans.
