Final answer:
The events that occurred during the Space Race included the establishment of NASA by the United States and the launching of the Salyut space station by the Soviet Union. The correct option is b).
Step-by-step explanation:
The event that occurred during the Space Race is that NASA was established. After the Soviet Union launched Sputnik, the first man-made satellite, into orbit in October 1957, the United States felt a sense of urgency to respond to the Soviet's early lead in space exploration.
Consequently, in 1958, the U.S. government established the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to advance their space exploration efforts.
Therefore, the correct answer to the question is option (b) A and C, as both the establishment of NASA and the launching of the Soviet Union's Salyut space station occurred during the Space Race.
