About the coin:
The Sputnik program was a series of robotic spacecraft missions. Sputnik 1 launched the first man-made object to orbit the Earth. That launch took place on October 4, 1957. It demonstrated the viability of using artificial satellites to explore the upper atmosphere. In Eastern Europe, "Sputnik" is a synonyme for satellite.
This was an important part of the development of the GPS system.
Startingplace:
Geocaching in space event in Harstad, Norway 7 november 2013.
Info:
More than 1,100 Geocaching in Space Event Caches will dot the globe on November 6 and 7. Geocaching in Space events can be found in more than 40 countries and in the world’s most remote locations, like Easter Island and inside the Arctic Circle.
Each event commemorates the launch of a Geocaching Travel Bug® as it journeys to the International Space Station. Astronaut Rick Mastracchio will use the Travel Bug as a tool to teach students back on Earth about geography and science. He’s scheduled to launch from Kazakhstan in the early morning of November 7, which will be November 6 in much of the rest of the world.
