Why are rockets important?
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.
When was the first space telescope built by NASA place into orbit?
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.
Who discovered satillets?

Who was US president when the Soviet Union launched the Sputnik?
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.
What was one reason the soviet union was interested in putting a satellite into orbit?
One primary reason the Soviet Union sought to launch a satellite into orbit was to demonstrate its technological and scientific capabilities during the Cold War, particularly in the context of competition with the United States. Successfully launching a satellite would showcase Soviet advancements in space technology, boost national pride, and serve as a propaganda victory, highlighting the USSR's status as a superpower. The launch of Sputnik 1 in 1957 not only achieved this goal but also marked the beginning of the space age and intensified the space race between the two nations.

Why did the sputnik carry weapons into space?
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.

How do you launch a satellite?
Normally satellites are placed on top of rockets and carried into space, then they are released/pushed out of the rocket once it reaches space. It is first pushed out (injected) into an orbit close to earth called a "transfer orbit," meaning an orbit used to move it from the release location to the primary/intended orbit. Sometimes a booster motor is used to move it into the transfer orbit. After the transfer orbit moves it to the correct location another motor changes it's direction/motion into the final/primary orbit. Sometimes a satellite is carried into space by the Space Shuttle, and then released. After that it moves into a transfer orbit that carries it to the final orbit like other satellites.
