Up on the top of the page it says that Sputnik completed 1350 orbits before decaying. Lower down in the page in the Launch and Mission Section it's written that there were 1440 completed orbits.
== Citation style ==
:It is not really known how long Sputnik remained in orbit. After the easily-visible rocket stage fell, the extremely faint satellite itself was difficult to visually track. The Soviets lost track of it after 1440 orbits and declared it was gone, but radio ionization tracking indicated that it remained in orbit for quite a while after that.

{{ping|Coffeeandcrumbs}} I find the current citation style really hard to work with; would you be amenable to changing it to either sfn, harvnb, or similar? I think sfn is the simplest of those types personally, but I am sure not all agree.

== Harvard designator ==
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
 
I think there's room in this article to explain objects 1957 Alpha 1, 1957 Alpha 2, and 1957 Alpha 3, and why they were named that, since it was the first designation for an artificial satellite. Sources:
I have just modified 3 external links on [[Sputnik 1]]. Please take a moment to review [[special:diff/813179261|my edit]]. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit [[User:Cyberpower678/FaQs#InternetArchiveBot|this simple FaQ]] for additional information.

I made a [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sputnik_1&type=revision&diff=1029453371&oldid=1028184594|change], and this change has a copy/paste mistake. But in the second part of this change, I believe, it was constructive change. My change was reverted (and I agree, because of copy/paste mistake). In order to avoid [[WP:EW]] I am not tried to implement my changes again (in their right part). Let's discuss here. I'll send a message in your page. What do you think about my change overall (not in the part of copy/paste mistake)? [[User:SHaggY caT|SHaggY caT]] ([[User talk:SHaggY caT|talk]]) 02:52, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 
I suggest to add:

[[Sputnik_V_COVID-19_vaccine|Sputnik-V]] - Russian vaccine against [[covid-19]], which is named after the fist mankind's satellite in the [[LEO]] in order to improve efficiency of the [[Cyberwarfare_by_Russia|modern Russia's propaganda]]<ref>https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20210313-sputnik-v-in-eastern-europe-propaganda-tool-or-godsend</ref>. Russian propaganda claimed that Sputnik-V is the first vaccine<ref>https://sputnikvaccine.com/about-vaccine/</ref> against Covid, like Sputnik satellite was the first artificial [[satellite]] in the [[LEO]]<ref>https://sputnikvaccine.com/sputnik-moment</ref>.
There seems to be some confusion as to the proper formatting of the name. Most occurrences in this article are in normal type, but some are italicized. Which is correct?--[[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] ([[User talk:Khajidha|talk]]) 11:17, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
:{{reply to|Khajidha}} I think that it should be italicized according to the Wikipedia Manual of Style/Titles. See [[MOS:T]] Section 1.2. Names of ships, including spaceships, should be italicized.

:::Sputnik 1 should be in italics. When referring to the Sputnik rocket, Sputnik should not be italicized. When referring to the Sputnik satellite program, it should not be italicized. When referring to Sputnik 1 (or any of the others), and shortened to Sputnik, it should be italicized.

:The new vaccine name Sputnick V is clearly intended to remind people of Sputnick 1, but how important is this vaccine to the actual topic of Sputnick 1? To me, it looks peripheral. It doesn't change how people think of Sputnick 1. [[User:Binksternet|Binksternet]] ([[User talk:Binksternet|talk]]) 18:00, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
{{ping|Ethanpet113}} The article is a bit far from GA as it is; the cleanup tag notwithstanding, there are a lot of paragraphs that are uncited. I recommend you try to get them cited before someone picks up the review, or else it might fail a little quickly.
