  Explorer Information
Explorer-I, officially known as Satellite 1958 Alpha, was the first United States earth satellite and was sent aloft as part of the United States program for the International Geophysical Year 1957-1958.
The satellite instrumentation of Explorer-I was designed and built by Dr. James Van Allen of the State University of Iowa.
Explorer-I was placed in an orbit with a perigee of 224 miles and an apogee of 1,575 miles having a period of 114.9 minutes.

  Explorer 3 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Following the launch of the Soviet Sputnik I on October 4, 1957, ABMA was directed to proceed with the launching of a satellite using the Jupiter-C, which had already been flight-tested in nose-cone re-entry tests for the Jupiter IRBM (intermediate-range ballistic missile).
Explorer 3 (1958 Gamma 1) was launched in conjunction with the IGY by the U.S. Army (Ordinance) into an eccentric orbit.
The discovery of the Van Allen Belts by the Explorer satellites was considered to be one of the outstanding discoveries of the International Geophysical Year.

 Explorer I - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Explorer I was equipped with a geiger counter for the purposes of detecting cosmic rays.
After Explorer III, it was decided that the original geiger counter had been overwhelmed by strong radiation coming from a belt of charged particles trapped in space by the Earth's magnetic field.
Explorer-I was placed in an orbit with a perigee of 360 kilometers (224 miles) and an apogee of 2520 kilometers (1575 miles) having a period of 114.9 minutes.

 Explorers 1 and 3
The spacecraft, named Explorer 1, was launched 31 January 1958 and was designed and built by a group of scientists from the University of Iowa, led by James Van Allen.
Explorer 2 failed to orbit, but Explorer 3, launched March 26, was successful, and it did carry a tape recorder.
Further studies were conducted by Explorer 4 later that year (trapped radiation, history) and of course, by many spacecraft ever since.

The Soviet's Sputnik and America's Explorer I (the latter instrumented by James Van Allen) were both launched in 1957, and 1958, respectively.
Explorer I carried Van Allen's Geiger counters to observe cosmic rays, but the instruments mysteriously appeared only to work at the lower altitudes of its elliptical orbit.
Explorer III followed two months later with more sophisticated instruments, and detected very high levels of radiation; vast numbers of energetic particles were seen to hit the counters at higher altitudes, and in specific regions.

The major difference between the two successful Explorers was that III had a data recorder whereas I did not.

Here's the setup: Using the body of the previous-generation Explorer sport utility, the Sport Trac is a pure SUV from its nose to the back of the rear seat, identical in all respects to the four-door Explorer that was on the market when the Sport Trac made its debut.
The Sport Trac isn't quite as roomy as the current Explorer, which was completely redesigned two years ago and put on a new, dedicated chassis.
That's because of the first two-thirds of the vehicle being the same as the previous-generation Explorer, which was even then the best-selling sport utility on the market by far.
