What is the first artificial satellite to orbit another planet?

Why are near infrared telescopes located on mountaintops and ultraviolet telescopes in Earth orbit?
Mountaintops are ideal for near-infrared telescopes because the high altitude reduces atmospheric interference and light pollution. Ultraviolet telescopes are placed in Earth orbit to avoid absorption of ultraviolet light by Earth's atmosphere, which allows for clearer observations of objects emitting in the ultraviolet spectrum.
When did explorer 1 enter earths orbit?
Explorer 1, the first successful satellite launched by the United States, entered Earth's orbit on January 31, 1958. It was launched as part of the Explorer program in response to the successful launch of the Soviet satellite Sputnik 1.

The interior of the shuttle is controlled to be comfortable for the astronauts, typically maintained around 72 degrees Fahrenheit (22 degrees Celsius).
What is the wave length of an ultraviolet wave?
The wavelength of an ultraviolet wave typically ranges from about 10 nanometers to 400 nanometers. This places ultraviolet waves just outside the visible light spectrum, which generally ranges from 400 to 700 nanometers.
When did Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer end?
