Not a bad article. Sputnik I, however, did not cause widespread fear
among the American public, and the article implies there was. There
is one glaring error: there were not "a number of embarrassing
failures" in the US program between Sputnik I and Explorer 1. There
was only one failure, the December 1957 Vanguard TV-3 launch.
