Score: 5/5 Details | Tickets | Photos | Reviews On Oct. 4, 1957, the Soviet Union launched the first man-made satellite into orbit, starting a chain of events that almost resulted in WWIII. This documentary chronicles the aftermath of this historic event that sent the U.S. into a panic thinking that the U.S.S.R. was just a step away from attacking America from space. On the upside, the perceived threat from Sputnik inspired Americans to step up their commitment to scientific development. Narrated by Liev Schreiber.
