Kennedy is probably remembered best for three contributions: successful management of both the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Berlin Airlift, and initiating the Apollo space program which, after Kennedy's tragic death, successfully landed men on the moon.
President Kennedy is probably remembered for two contributions in particular. He originated the American space program which eventually (after his own death) resulted in the successful landing of Americans on the moon. He also handled the Cuban Missile Crisis successfully, preventing the USSR from placing nuclear missiles in Cuba without provoking a nuclear war (although war was only narrowly averted). Although the Cold War continued until 27 years after Kennedy's death, it is still true that Kennedy's actions played a role in the eventual end of the Cold War and the end of the communist bloc.
