In which year was NORAD founded?

• A. 1958
• B. 1960
• C. 1947
• D. 1970

Answer: (A)

This question checks your knowledge of when NORAD began. NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command, was created by the United States and Canada to coordinate air defense and early warning during the Cold War. It was established in 1958, when the two nations signed the agreement and the command began operating that year. The other years don’t fit the timeline for NORAD’s founding: 1947 is when the U.S. Air Force was established, and 1960 and 1970 come after NORAD was already in place. So 1958 is the correct year.
