Nobody thought that the first satellite will jolt for the birth of the Internet. To some extent, the first satellite of the Soviet Union may be called daddy (actually his stepfather), Internet. Like my father, but was not involved in the process.
In the video file has been described by a version of which the U.S. government wants to talk. My version is quite different.
No government in the state did not put that kind of money for the convenience of the researchers involved in the projects of the Ministry of Defence. By the end of the 60s without the intervention of the Ministries of Defense nor the U.S. nor the Soviet Union began to appear online for a peaceful blessing. The question arises as to why the Ministry of Defence intervened. DARPA was created to control all that is happening during the transfer of data between scientists. With the aid of DARPA had control over the work of scientists, followed by the fact that, whatever a clever idea did not go "left."
History of the Internet began in the late 60's, when the U.S. government in 1958 decided, due to which there was a global network. But nobody did not want to facilitate the work of the minds of America. Internet - a side effect, which can be considered one of the greatest achievements of the era.
After the Soviet hydrogen bomb test in 1956, shtatovskih military began to think about the protection of nuclear weapons. Further discussion of these ideas did not.
After running the Soviet Union 's TV satellite in 1957, the U.S. government serezdno thought about the threat of nuclear attack from outer space. Leadership decided to develop, rather the creation, early-warning systems for missile launches and launch vehicles. This system was at the time of ground, now it is based on satellite-based.
Because of this, and was born in the late 1950s, NORAD (North American Aerospace Defence Command). Its purpose was more early warning of missile attack, the time for evacuation shelters.
Over time this network has expanded, due to the connection of military aircraft, civil and thereafter. Network Systems NORAD has already become a global, under the supervision of the Ministry of Defence.
But the bomb Soviet Union became more and more terrible, from 50 megaton bomb NORAD could do nothing.
Here and there was thought to attach to the network EC (data centers), scientific, educational organizations, universities, etc. ..
Here was born ARPANET . And then it all as the official version.
Many inventions in civilian life have come from the MIC (military-industrial complex). Paraphrase a famous phrase, the best people, the military is already there.
