Answer 1

[Imagine very very elderly person talking]
Eh, you whipper-snappers nowadays, can't even remember what a great drink Tang was. Probably can't remember those cool commercials where the Tang bottle would take off from the table like a rocket.


Seriously, though...
Tang was created by NASA to be a high nutrient/energy drink for the astronauts. They couldn't take lots of food containers with them, so some sort of all-in-one drink was formulated. And, like most stuff from NASA [such as UV glass coating, scratch resistant coating, Velcro, etc] it was another invention given over to commercial industry.
