There was more than one Sputnik. Sputnik was a common name for vehicles in the early Russian / Soviet Space programme, Sputnik 1, Sputnik 2 etc
They were all invented by the Russians AKA Soviet Union.
The team, at least for the first Sputniks, was lead by Sergei Korolev
Sputnik was developed by the USSRSputnik 1 was launched from kasakhstan where the baikonor cosmodrome is today
i would say 1957 - sputnik.
Soviet Union on 4th October 1957 named Sputnik-1
Russia The Soviet Union invented Sputnik, the first man-made satellite to orbit Earth. It was made in Russia and it was the first Earth-orbiting artificial satellite. It was launched into an elliptical low earth orbit by the Soviet Union on 4 October 1957, and was the first in a series of satellites known as the Sputnik program. The unanticipated announcement of Sputnik 1's success precipitated the Sputnik crisis in the United States and ignited the Space Race during the Cold War.
No, the Russian's Sputnik was unmanned.

The first space probe was the satellite Sputnik I launched in 1957.

Because the Sputnik program ended with Sputnik 3. Albeit there was a Sputnik 40 and 41 but these were to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Sputnik 1.

Bill Maye's invented the "first" spaceship, although it has been known to scientists that people have been planning space flight for since the first Sputnik launches.

Sputnik was the "family name" for a series of satellites, so there never was a satellite named only Sputnik. They all had numbers with Sputnik 1 being the first.
