Bob,
Tang predated the space program. It was actually invented by chemist and occasional playwright William A. Mitchell in 1957 while he was working for General Foods. General Foods introduced Tang to the public in powder form in 1959, but it wasn’t popular initially. It never sold much until NASA used it on the Glenn flight and the Gemini flights.
According to Wikipedia, “The creator of Tang, William A. Mitchell, also invented Pop Rocks, Cool Whip, a form of instant-set Jell-O, and other convenience foods.”
