[amsat-bb] THANKS TO ALL FOR THE SPUTNIK EVENT

[John Marranca, Jr]

Tonight was truly fantastic and historic.  My thanks to all for the hard
work they undoubtedly put into this night.

Fifty years ago today, that same sound was certainly met with fear and
trepidation, as well as amazment and curiosity.  The idea of a transmitter
orbiting the earth...and at a time when the Cold War and countless
"space-themed" B-Movies....it must have been incredible.

Great event!  Can't wait fot the certificate to come!
