Vanguard's 50th Anniversary
For you amusement: Fifty years ago today, the United States launched Vanguard 1, starting off the tradition of creating space junk that continues to this day!
Vanguard is a little 6-inch aluminum sphere in an orbit of about 460 by 2500 miles. It is the oldest human-made object still in orbit.
