To date rockets are the only method that can be used to put something or someone into orbit.
Rockets are needed to lift payloads into space, whether it's to launch a satellite into an orbit around earth or to send a probe out into our solar system and beyond. A lot of speed is required to be able to escape the gravity of the earth. This is provided by the rocket and the huge amount of fuel.
The Hubble telescope was the first telescope built by NASA and placed into orbit. The original launch for the telescope was delayed because of the disaster seen by the Challenger.
Sergei Korolev was the father of the soviet rocket program. He is the one who headed the mission to launch Sputnik into orbit, back in 1957, and convinced Kruschev it was a good idea to do so.
We don't know whether or not it was the first attempt, but the first launch thatsuccessfully placed a man-made object in Earth-orbit was the launch of Sputnik-Iin October 1957, during the second term of President Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Sputnik, the first rocket into space many things to do with space: they got the first person into space the first satellite to launch into space the first orbit around the earth the first living being into space the first woman into space etc.

A nation that can launch something into orbit is a nation that can drop anything from orbit onto any other part of the world. Unless you trust the nation with orbital capacity, this can be a scary thought.
[Current cost to launch material just into earth orbit: about $10,000 per pound.]
As far as we know, it didn't. But if you can launch something harmless into orbit, you can also launch something dangerous into orbit, which was a big part of the fear caused by the Sputnik launch.
sure. there no problem int when it launch
Launch him high enough so that he goes out of the earth's orbit.

They are taken into orbit by rocket or shuttle.
We have sent probes from Earth to orbit Jupiter, and to fly by, but nothing has landed there.

Launch, orbit, and landing.
