ESSAY ON: The Cuban Missile Crisis: Jupiter’s Role

Number of Pages 10

This research paper: A 10 page paper discussing the usefulness of the Jupiter missile in ending the Cuban Missile Crisis. The Jupiter missile superficially appears to have a brief history, but it has been influential in several US initiatives. It was removed from service in 1964, but the lessons learned from it contributed significantly to the development of the US space program. It was a symbol of US presence in Italy and Turkey, as well as reflecting the cooperation of those governments with the US military at the time. Ultimately, it assumed a leading role in ending the stalemate between the US and the former USSR over what would happen in Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. Bibliography lists 23 sources.
