This theory claims that Sputnik was not merely the first artificial satellite but an early orbital surveillance device capable of reading, extracting, or reconstructing handwritten information from space. It emerged from the documented shock of the 1957 launch, real public fears that satellites would transform warfare and reconnaissance, and a Cold War tendency to interpret every Soviet technological leap as a hidden spying system.
