65 years ago Sputnik proved we can stick stuff up in orbit and transmit a signal back. Today satellites the size of Sputnik are continuing its legacy. #Sputnik65
"The control system of the Sputnik rocket was adjusted to an intended orbit of 223 by 1,450 km (139 by 901 mi), with an orbital period of 101.5 minutes" wikipedia.org/wiki/Sputnik_1
Russia comprised some 60-70% of Soviet Union, it was the place where communism gained power. And the capital was in Russia. That should tell you something.

This Soviet rocket looks like futuristic for its time.
Every missile looks futuristic
The legend of Soviet 🙏🙏🙏
The very first satellite.
the moon was first
@@yucky-yucky artificial one
the solar system is the first satellite
@@yucky-yucky The World (excluding US/West) disagrees.
@@islandguy6928 objectify the moon first (man made satellite different story)
Earth is strong!
1:15 that looks like a vanguard rocket
I believe it was an R-7 Semyorka that sent Sputnik. Kinda like a Vanguard just thicc at the bottom
Keep in mind Americans didn know how it was done, its possibile artist went with vanguard like vehicle due to having no other refference.
Watching from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳💯
Iam proud
Earth proud.
Wow thats great..starting of technology was begin from there
The rocket shown during the daytime is different from the launch itself. The Fairing is just longer and sharper than Sputnik.
Sound isn't working for the first half of the video...
How long did it stay in orbit?
+David Smith Please read the description
The satellite flew 92 days and made 1,440 orbits around the planet, until it entered the atmosphere and burned down
Thanks for the info. I'll read the description next time :-)
@@LediNoch37 so wait when it lost contact how did the soviets controll the satellite to burn down in the atmosphere

What was your childhood dream of career?
why they address "russian" instead of "uni Soviet"?
Russia comprised some 60-70% of Soviet Union, it was the place where communism gained power. And the capital was in Russia. That should tell you something.
