		While the sputnik was being taken out to its orbit, these aerials were folded back against the body of the rocket, but after the first two steps had fallen away the aerials turned out on their hinges, assuming the position shown in the famous photo.
		The needed temperature on Sputnik I was ensured by regulating the heat resistance between the envelope and the equipment, through the forced circulation of the nitrogen in the satellite.
		Two radio transmitters were installed in the sputnik, constantly emitting signals on frequencies of 20.007 and 40.002 megacycles (15 and 7.5 metre wavelengths respectively).
