− | The '''Stayputnik Mk. 2''' is an unmanned [[Command Module]] that runs on [[Electricity]]. It seems to be based upon the main body of the USSR satellite, Sputnik, hence the name.(NOTE: this could also be a reference to the first US satellite launch of the Vanguard. Upon it`s catastrophic failure on the launchpad, foreign press made fun of the Vanguard, calling it the "Stayputnik" among other things.)
