- Vanguard_TV2 abstract "Vanguard TV-2, also called Vanguard Test Vehicle Two, was the third sub-orbital test flight of a Vanguard rocket as part of Project Vanguard. VT-2 followed the successful launch of Vanguard VT-0 a one-stage rocket launched in December 1956 and Vanguard VT-1 a two-stage rocket launched in May 1957.Project Vanguard was a program managed by the United States Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), and designed and built by the Glenn L. Martin Company (now Lockheed-Martin), which intended to launch the first artificial satellite into Earth orbit using a Vanguard rocket. as the launch vehicle from Cape Canaveral Missile Annex, Florida.Vanguard TV-2 arrived at Cape Canaveral in June 1957. Vanguard TV-2 was a prototype as it had a liquid rocket first stage, a dummy (no fuel) second stage, and dummy third stage. Three Vanguard power stages are needed to put a satellite in orbit, the finial goal of the Vanguard project. Since stage two and three had no power the test flight would not achieve the same height as Vanguard TV-1Vanguard TV-2 lifted off on October 23, 1957 from Cape Canaveral from launch pad 18A. Launch pad 18A was an older Viking launch stand that was shipped from White Sands Missile Range for use at the Cape Canaveral. Pad 18A was also used on Vanguard TV-0 and VT-1. The goal of TV-2 was to test the finial Vanguard first stage. Also to test the retrorocket system of stage two and spin-up of stage three. Also new to test on VT-2 flight was a super high frequency (SHF) C-band radio beacon on the rocket and ground tracking radar gear, used to track proper propulsion and trajectory. The telemetry was picked up at the Air Force Missile Test Center's (AFMTC) tracking station.Vanguard TV-2 was successful, the three stage rocket achieved an altitude of 109 mi (175 km), a down range of 335 mi (539 km), and a top speed of 4,250 mph (6,840 km/h). TV-2 landed in the Atlantic Ocean. First and second stage separated on time, all controls and tracking worked. The only problems VT-2 had were on the ground getting ready for the flight as there were many delays. VT-2 was shipped to the cape not working (agreed and known by all parties). It took from early June to late October in 1957 at the cape to work out all the problems that were not fixed in the manufacturing. For contrast TV-1 arrived at the cape in February 1956 and lifted off in early May 1956. The delay of TV-2 along with the failure of TV-3, put the USA behind in the space race. On October 4, 1957, 19 days before TV-2's lift off, a Soviet Union Sputnik rocket was used to perform the world's first satellite launch, taking away some of the joy of TV-2's success.".
