Project Orbiter was a proposed United States spacecraft , an early competitor to Project Vanguard . It was jointly run by the United States Army and United States Navy . It was ultimately rejected by the Ad Hoc Committee on Special Capabilities, which selected Project Vanguard instead. Although the project was canceled on August 3, 1955, the basic design was used for the Juno I rocket which launched Explorer 1 , the first satellite launched by the United States. Proposal In the 1920s and 1930s, the German Verein f r Raumschiffahrt Society for Space Travel Verein f r Raumschiffahrt, referred to as VfR by its founders began to gain in popularity, with membership growing from outside of Germany as well as within. The primary cause for the VfR s gaining world wide appeal was due to the writings of mathematician Hermann Oberth who detailed, in a 1923 publication entitled The Rocket into Interplanetary Space, the mechanics of placing a satellite into Earth orbit . ref cite web url http www.hq.nasa.gov office pao History SP 4201 ch1 3.htm title Part I, Chapter I, Section entitled The Highway to Space author Loyd S.
