On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik 1, the world's first artificial Earth satellite, from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in the Kazakh SSR. This event, occurring at 19:28:34 UTC, marked the official beginning of the Space Age and the Cold War space race between the USSR and the United States.

I am always most amazed that the iPhone I am typing on has more computing power than the computers at NASA used to plan the moon landing.

Prob should concentrate figuring out shite on earth (black people) before making long term space plans.

I remember my grandfather bringing me outside to see the Russian Sputnik crossing the nighttime sky.
He was very concerned of what that meant and how the US was behind Russia.
