No Sputniks are still in orbit. When they were, the period of an orbit was about 88 minutes.
it took 98 minutes, it stayed in space for 6 monthsIf this helps it orbited 1440 times in 3 months.
Sputnik 1 is long gone. It burnt up on re-entry a few months after launch.
Sputnik I orbited Earth for about 3 months before decaying into Earth's atmosphere and burning up. Sputnik I burned up over 50 years ago.
No. Sputnik 1 burned up on 4 January 1958, as it fell from orbit upon reentering Earth's atmosphere

Sputnik 1 traveled at a speed of 18000 mph, completing one orbit of the Earth every 96.2 minutes.
Sputnik with its puppy dog passenger( Laika ) was launched in October 1957, and remained in orbit until early 1958, when it reentered EarthÂ’s atmosphere and burned up Sputnik 1 was in orbit for 3 months, completing 1440 orbits. Sputnik 2, Laika's flight, was in orbit for 162 days. There were other missions, but these two, especially Sputnik 1, were the ones to capture the world's - especially the US'- attention.
Doesn't work like that, a satellite can't orbit one country. It can stay in geostationary orbit over some, but that's it. Sputnik 1 orbited the whole Earth.

No, Sputnik 1, the first spacecraft to orbit earth, was a roughly two foot diameter sphere/ball.
