Description: This commemorative emblem is to celebrate that Sputnik 1 was the first artificial Earth satellite. The Soviet Union launched it into an elliptical low Earth orbit on 4 October 1957. It was a 58 cm diameter polished metal sphere, with four external radio antennae to broadcast radio pulses.
Description: n 1977 the publishing houses Klett (founded in 1936 by Ernst Klett) and Cotta (founded in 1659) unified and formed Klett-Cotta. Since its foundation, the concentration on a high class literary program was fundamental, as Klett-Cotta has been one of the most important publishing houses during the classical epoch in Germany (e.g. publications of Friedrich Schiller and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe). Until today the publishing house manages the rights of important German writers like Ernst Jünger und Gottfried Benn.
