Sputnik and I....

We are being 50 years of age....The shiny one is "mockup" of Sputnik.....the old guys are....old guys. Duh.

" Sputnik, the first artificial satellite, was launched by the Soviets and circled the globe Oct. 4, 1957. The Space Age was born. And what followed were changes to everyday life that people now take for granted. "

  1. Happy birthday! That was the year my mom died. I didn't watch Sputnik, but a few years later, we were out on the lawn watching Echo.

    You've come a long way, Baby! =)
