Vanguard 2 is an Earth-orbiting satellite launched 17 February 1959
The satellite was designed to measure cloud cover distribution over the
daylight portion of its orbit, for a period of 19 days, and to provide
information on the density of the atmosphere for the lifetime of its orbit
As the first weather satellite and one of the first orbital space missions,
the launch of Vanguard 2 was an important milestone in the Space
Race between the United States and the Soviet Union. As of March
2021, Vanguard 2 was still in orbit.
