Quiz of the Month

[AmRivlin]

In the past I posted random Trivia on architecture:

I think I will start up a question of the month again...
Hope you enjoy: (Renots used to answer in minutes) I have refined the question and the answer doesnt come up on Google this time :)

In 1968 the government formed a program along side a preEchelon project...

The counterpart I refer to is "Project Icarus"... What is it and what senator formed it.

CONFUSION: This is unrelated to architecture
