Read the excerpt from "Majority of Americans Believe It Is Essential That the U.S. Remain a Global Leader in Space.”

Strong public support that the U.S. should continue to be at the vanguard of space exploration is widely shared across gender, educational and political groups. Each generational group, for example, expresses nearly equal levels of strong support for continued U.S. space leadership—from Baby Boomer and older generations (71%) who lived through the "Right Stuff” era that pioneered space exploration to Millennials (70%) who grew up during the space shuttle program. Indeed, on most issues regarding NASA and space exploration, there are no more than modest differences among the generational cohorts.

Similarly, majorities across gender, generation, education and political groups see benefits from government investment in one of NASA’s signature projects, the International Space Station (ISS). The findings—support for the U.S. being at the forefront of space exploration and the perception that the space station has been a good investment—are broadly consistent with previous Pew Research Center surveys, which used somewhat different wording and polling methods.

Before reading the text, Sachi predicted that more Americans support the space program now than in previous years. Which detail from the text best corrects Sachi’s prediction?

“Strong public support that the U.S. should continue to be at the vanguard of space exploration is widely shared across gender, educational and political groups.”
“Each generational group, for example, expresses nearly equal levels of strong support for continued U.S. space leadership—from Baby Boomer and older generations (71%) who lived through the ‘Right Stuff’ era that pioneered space exploration to Millennials (70%) who grew up during the space shuttle program.”
“The findings—support for the U.S. being at the forefront of space exploration and the perception that the space station has been a good investment—are broadly consistent with previous Pew Research Center surveys, which used somewhat different wording and polling methods.”
“While the ISS has proven to be an enduring legacy of the U.S. space program, it is also emblematic of changing times.”
