I think at NASA?
Korea is not launching rockets at the US. North Korea just launched a satellite on a rocket into space.
The first successful rockets built to go into space were ICBMs: the Soviet Sputnik I & II were launched on military ICBMs, the US Mercury spacecraft were launched on military ICBMs (Redstone & Atlas), the US Gemini spacecraft were launched on military ICBMs (Titan II). IIRC, the Delta & Saturn rockets were the first successful rockets built to go into space that didn't begin as military ICBMs. Although most Deltas are launched from Vandenberg AFB. The European Arian was the first commercial rocket built to go into space.
the name of the satellite was called Explorer
The name of the rocket that launched the first people on the moon was a Saturn V, on mission Apollo 11.
The British have a space program, but to my knowledge they have never launched their own rockets into space. If they want something in orbit, the US or France can do it for them.
Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, located in Florida, is one of the primary launch sites for rockets headed into space. It is also home to the Kennedy Space Center.
