The correct answer is:
**He challenged America to land on the moon before 1970.**
John F. Kennedy famously set the ambitious goal of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to Earth before the end of the 1960s in his speech before a joint session of Congress on May 25, 1961. This goal significantly advanced the United States' efforts in the Space Race against the Soviet Union.
