Sputnik was launched October 4th, 1957. It set off fears that we were
falling behind the Soviet Union in space race, but for some tech enthusiasts
it was a chance to listen to the satellite beep as it passed overhead. To
remember this anniversary, the quiz topic is satellites. Since the General
pool does not have any satellite specific questions, the moon is a
satellite, and a moon bounce mode will be our question.
