TV-1 was a two-stage rocket. Vanguard TV-1 used a liquid rocket booster from a modified Viking rocket for the first stage. The second stage was made by Grand Central Rocket Company.

The solid-propellant rocket needed to spin-up, separate from the first stage booster, ignite, provide a proper propulsion and trajectory. Another goal was to test the techniques and equipment used to launch and track the rocket. The telemetry received during flight would record the proper propulsion and trajectory. The telemetry was picked up at the Air Force Missile Test Center's (AFMTC) tracking station.Vanguard TV-1 was successful, the two stage rocket achieved an altitude of 121 mi (195 km) and a down range of 451 mi (726 km), landing in the Atlantic Ocean.With Vanguard TV1 and Vanguard TV0 success, the next sub-orbital test flight, Vanguard TV2, was launch on October 23, 1957."@en }
