摘要

It came from outer space...and crashed down in the middle of a street in Manitowoc, Wisconsin. That surely sounds like the start of a sci-fi movie. But half a century ago, the town was on the receiving end of a 20-pound smoldering hunk of the Soviet Union's five-ton Sputnik Ⅳ satellite. Media reports from the September 6,1962 event say there were no eyewitnesses, but "there are hundreds if you ask now," says J. Gregory Vadney, executive director of the Rahr-West Art Museum, which hosts the festival. Vadney says he heard there were "two police officers on routine patrol when they spotted the piece in the street. They believed it to be a metal ingot from one of the local manufacturing plants, speculated that it fell off a truck, and left it. Following patrol, they returned to the city police station, where they heard that a search had been called for the Sputnik Ⅳ spacecraft" and suddenly realized what they'd found.
