    Actually right after ww 2 when the USA was launching some captured and modified V2s out at White Sands , one of the tests had a payload of some explosives and some individual items I believe were just metal spheres for some testing reason. The explosives were detonated at altitude and I read it was a mathematical certainty that some of the fragments made it through at least one orbit. Not much of a satellited

    @@williamligneau1032 indeed. and he gets his story half wrong anyway. during the first nuclear bomb test in the USA where the bomb was lowered down into a vertical shaft and exploded underground. it supposedly blew away the lid that was covering up the shaft. "blowing a manhole cover into space" according to a scientist who crunched the numbers the manhole cover would have gained enough deltaV to set a course leaving our Solar system. in reality of course this manhole cover made of steel. got vaporized by the extreme heat before it ever got a chance to fly anywhere. and so the story was a bunch of baloney to begin with.

    Sputnik Runaway Press Sputnik What really Happen by the inventor~Paul Gibson For my first birthday, I got 3 money gifts each $3,000.00 my blue eye mother said I can spend it on anything I want, since I had already made the first PLG Parallel Light Generation or nowadays called laser from other infringements. I wanted to put up a satellite, she said ok tried military contractors for help, but they laughed their heads off told me to come back when I'm 18. So, I went to 3 different custom toy companies each one would not know the other and just what they were making on this top-secret invention! I had also discovered in my combustion chemistry a propellent that could achieve orbit. So one toy company I ask for a vessel he came back with some turkey cooking pot that was a big let down for me. Well to my back yard in Sugar House, Zootah a successful launch. Sometime later turmoil rotten stuff happen became an orphan but found myself in Scottsdale, Arizona there with my hands controls repositioned my satellite front yard 2 cars pull up. One identified himself as a marine from Camp Pendleton, California, tracking down the first radio signal from space! The other two news reporters. He then ask what do I have in my hands and what am I'm doing? I answered repositioning my rusty old satellite. Then took a sip of a refreshment drink of Kool-Aid. He screams to the 2 reporters RUSSIAN OWNED SATELLITE! Q UICK, QUICK GET IT ON RADIO NEWS BROADCAST! That made me burst into a laugh when I was just swallowing choke on the drink spit down my neck as I wipe my neck with back of my hand mumble got spit on neck. The marine then screams to the reporters: RUSSIAN OWNED SATELLITE NAMED SPUTNIK QUICK GET IT OUT ON THE NEWS BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS I don't know maybe atomic blast or a war or space aliens..... Two weeks later black limousines pull up in front yard from the Russian Embassy they begin yelling screaming at me. Warmonger! one IDs himself as a KGB pulls his pistol out waves it at me, trying to start WW III huh, in my country you try this we take you out and just shoot you no talk! Well, I began to cry and said why is it so horrible to be accused of a fantastic scientific accomplishment and it's mine, not yours and I told you about the dumb marine who misquoted my words. That cool the hot discussion they left. Sometime later I get a private invite from Khrushchev to visit Russia to see who the world trouble maker is and I so did go to Russia for interviews with him and top generals on my views of starting WW III interviews!
