October Sky


Historical day and mesmerized world,
Eyes of wonder as Sputnik whirled,
Setting fruitful race,
Towards amazing space,
Harmony of Apollo's fire,
Inspired generation and decade later,
Crews ready for mission Apollo seven,
Technology has evolved with us
and so does we with technology,
Singularity is now in our hand 
and we merged into its cosmology,
Wise enough to aim for stars,
Awaiting milestone starting with why,
History repeats itself as a October Sky.

Sputnik 1 was the first artificial Earth satellite. The Soviet Union launched it into an elliptical low Earth orbit on 4 October 1957 , orbiting for three weeks before its batteries died, then silently for two more months before falling back into the atmosphere. This surprise success precipitated the American Sputnik crisis and triggered the Space Race. The launch ushered in new political, military, technological, and scientific developments.

Apollo 7 was an October 1968 human spaceflight mission carried out by the United States. It was the first mission in the United States' Apollo program to carry a crew into space.
