22. Launch of Sputnik 1957: The Soviet Union launched a satellite into space named Sputnik 1. This marked the beginning of space exploration. It was a very simple device that took measurements of the upper layer of the atmosphere and sent information by radio signals down to the planet. It orbited every hour-and-a-half before it re-entered the atmosphere and burned up 3 months after launch. http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/space-race-sci
