- 0:00Speaker 1: The rules of the dark. Hello, welcome back to our
- 0:03Speaker 1: space journey. Have you ever wondered why we celebrate World
- 0:07Speaker 1: Space Week from October 4th to 10th? Let me tell you,
- 0:10Speaker 1: there's something truly magical about these dates. On October 4, 1957,
- 0:15Speaker 1: Sputnik was launched. But on October 10, 1967, something even
- 0:21Speaker 1: more revolutionary, though perhaps less frequently featured in action movies,
- 0:26Speaker 1: took place. The Outer Space Treaty came into effect. Just

- 0:33Speaker 1: Cold War, nations reached an agreement declaring that the moon
- 0:37Speaker 1: and other celestial bodies belong to all of humanity, while
- 0:41Speaker 1: also banning weapons of mass destruction in space. This planted
- 0:45Speaker 1: the seeds for global cooperation, a genuine peace treaty written
- 0:49Speaker 1: among the clouds. In the next episode, we'll return to
- 0:53Speaker 1: Earth to talk about iron, fire, and machines that come
- 0:57Speaker 1: back down from the sky. Don't miss it.
