60th anniversary of Sputnik 1 today

Seems like only ten years ago. Doesn't time fly? ;)

Fifty Years On...

Don't wander OT as much...:-rofl2
 
And there went the uncluttered sky's, now you have to be very careful when landing so you don't get hit by something.
 
I remember it going by and me saying "Gee I wounder what they will do next?"
 
Sputnik in Russian literally means "satellite" - a bit unimaginative on their part....
 
If you want to see the big mess it caused then take a look at this site.

Don't stare at it too long as you can get mesmerized.
