ARPA - DoD directive 5105.15 establishing the
Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) was signed on February 7, 1958.


The ARPANET was the predecessor to the Internet established by the
United States Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
(ARPA), and when the Domain Name System was introduced in 1985,
ARPANET host names were initially converted to domain names by
adding .arpa to the end.

And don't forget the alternate name, DARPA (tagging "Defense" on the
front).  Both were used interchangeably, depending on when you came into
the family.

DARPA is probably funding the existing turbo compound rotary engine
research effort.
