About This Design

sputnik 1

sputnik 1

On October 4, 1957 at 19:28:34 GMT, now more then 50 years ago a beeping 22-inch aluminium sphere called Sputnik 1 marked the beginning of the so called 'Space Age'. Sputnik 1 (Russian: "Спутник-1", "Satellite-1", or literally "Co-traveller-1" byname ПС-1 (PS-1, i.e. "Простейший Спутник-1", or Elementary Satellite-1)) was the first artificial satellite to be put into geocentric orbit. The launch provoked a great resonance in the world. The Russian word sputnik quickly entered into many languages. The first pages of world press were filled with headlines that expressed admiration to the achievement of the Soviet Union. It was described as the greatest sensation of the century and the Russian wonder that opened the space era. This event lead to the space race between the Soviet Union and the United States and changed the course of history. It finally led to man's first step on Moon, satellites exploring the outer reaches of our solar system, satellite TV, improved weather forecasts and a higly improved communications infrastructure including the internet.

Looked great and was perfect for my Nana's 99th it arrived super quick so much quicker than sending the original from the other side of the world! My Nan loved my artwork too and the picture of us inside helped her remember who I was as she has Alzheimer's. Crisp and clear. Bright and colorful true to the original artwork I created. The photo we placed inside also looked great and clear.

This was used as a Mother's Day card and my mother absolutely loved it! The artwork and attention to detail is stunning. It's as if the hare could jump right out of the card at any moment. The print quality and colours are of a very high standard and show the beautiful hare in commendable detail.
