Dramatized version of American reaction to Sputnik from The Right Stuff. Not too far from the truth.
--the music at the beginning is Reinhold Gliere's 'Russian Sailor Dance.' --the rocket shown isn't Sputnik's launch. It is a later Soyuz launch. --the bald guy in the rocket smoke is Sergey Korolev, Chief Designer of Rockets and Spacecraft at the time. --the main American speaking is Lyndon B. Johnson. --the "our Germans are better than their Germans" guy is Wernher von Braun.
