4 Okt 1957 Jahr - Launch of Sputnik
Beschreibung:
On October 4, 1957, at 10:29 p.m. Moscow time, Sputnik (translated to “satellite”) was launched into space. It transmitted radio signals back to Earth. Americans feared the USSR could drop a nuclear weapon from space with virtually no way to detect it. The launch of Sputnik was the beginning of the Space Race. This is coded red because the Soviets got a head start on creating extraterrestrial technology.
