Generation Sputnik

From 1957, the year the Soviet Union launched Sputnik 1, to 1969, when American astronaut Neil Armstrong walked on the Moon, the early chapters of space exploration saturated popular culture. Cinema, television, comics and literature of the era brimmed with visions of an imagined future.
