Scientific paper

The most widely-remembered IGY event was the beginning of the Space Age with the launch of Sputnik in October 1957. The earliest spacecraft were earth-orbiting, with spaceprobes first reaching the moon in 1959 and Venus in 1962. Since then, spacecraft have visited all the terrestrial and giant planets in the solar system and many of their satellites. This remarkable era of exploration revealed a new view of the solar system that was largely unexpected when the Space Age began during the IGY fifty years ago.
