This Sputnik 1 geocoin was launched for its journey from Kangasala, Finland on the 4th of October 2008, exactly 51 years after the launch of the original Sputnik 1, the first artificial satellite that was lauched from Baikonur Cosmodrome on the 4th of October 1957.
The original Sputnik 1 travelled at speed of 29000 kilometres per hour so this geocoin also prefers long and frequent moves from cache to cache. It also sends back data from its trip (Photographs, stories and also temperature measurements, as its big brother did).
Naturally this geocoin has special interest to aviation and space exploration related caches. But please try to avoid caches that are visited very seldom or caches that have very high risk to get muggled.
