Sputnik and the origins of the space age
evidence
Named as the source class for the Sputnik launch date, the R-7 as both first ICBM and first orbital launcher, and the American institutional response. V55 verification basis: NOT consulted; the satellite's mass, orbital parameters and transmitter frequencies are deliberately not quoted in this pack for that reason.
A evidence is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
