Explanation:

President John F. Kennedy's famous 1961 speech to Congress committed the U.S. to landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to Earth before the end of the 1960s (within the decade). Option A is incorrect as the timeline was a decade, not a single year. Options B and C are not part of this specific key promise.
