The invention of the rocket by the Chinese did not include any that would reach significant altitudes (above 3000 m). The first recorded use as a weapon was in 1232, when they were launched against the Mongols. German V-2 military rockets in 1945 had the power to reach higher, near-space altitudes. But it was not until October 4, 1957, that the USSR successfully launched a satellite into Earth orbit, called "Sputnik 1".
