Happy Birthday Sputnik.
Second!!!!!!!!!
I’ve heard there is a bottle of cognac inside. No idea what would be it’s purpose.
Ballast.
Oh. I thought it was to keep the astronauts/cosmonauts from killing each other in a cramped spaceship…
Come to think of it, some nice little THC patches would be a wonderful thing on a Mars Mission, take the edge off, prevent radiation poisoning, make the trip go by faster…
LOL. Far out!
The gift for Intelligent Life out there. But why cognac, since we have vodka? Seriously, I’m polish and I think vodka is much better than any other liquors.
Happy Birthday Sputnik, my dad always told me that the Russians stole the plans for Sputnik from America, but I know he’s full of shit.
Soviets stole the plans for the nuclear bomb, not for Sputnik.
They didnt steal them, they were given to them.
exactly, by the rosenburgs. besides, we stole the plans for the first space shuttle.
Well, they were given to them without authorization from the owner of these plans. In my family we call that stealing hehe.
Anyway, the youngest member of the Manhattan Project, Theodore Hall, also passed “atomic” information to the soviets. Only he never get caught, like happened to the Rosenbergs.
Its like a metal faggot on skewers
Happy birthday to sputnik
Thanks!
Oh little Sputnik flying high
With built-in Moscow beep
You tell the world its a commie sky
And Uncle Sam’s asleep
Cool - I saw Google’s Sputnik thing and wondered why they had it. I forgot that today was the day it went up and circled the Earth. My dad says he remembers back when he lived in a smaller town and his friends looked up and saw it go across the sky at night.
Yes, the newspapers published Sputniks’s daily schedule and flight path. In the evening everyone was outside watching for it.
he went around the world like santa claus on christmas night
“And that winking light that crowds around the globe gathered to watch in the night sky? Not Sputnik at all, as it turns out, but just the second stage of its booster rocket, according to Boris Chertok, one of the founders of the Soviet space program.”
