    Staten Island is the third largest but least populated borough in New York City. The Arthur Kill bridge was named after the Dutch term "Achter kill" meaning back channel. The 1950s saw advances in science and technology under President Eisenhower like NASA, television, and nuclear weapons, while the US faced challenges from the Soviet Union in the Space Race and issues of segregation and civil rights activism were addressed. The term "Lost Generation" was coined by Gertrude Stein to describe those who came of age during World War 1 and focused on wealth and pleasure in Paris in the postwar years.
