Sputnik 1, launched on October 4, 1957, was the first satellite to orbit Earth, transmitting radio signals that could be received on the ground. Sputnik 2 followed on November 3, 1957, and carried the first living creature into space, a dog named Laika. These missions demonstrated the Soviet Union's advancements in space technology and sparked global interest in space exploration.
