Many  kinds  of  satellites  built  for  scientific  purposes  now    Earth.  Long  before  the  Russian  satellite  Sputnik,  scientists  looked  forward  to  the  day  when  they  could  observe  Earth  and  the  universe  from  orbiting  satellites.  They  believed  these  devices  would  help  them  to    old  mysteries  and  to  make  new  discoveries  about  the  universe.  And  they  were  right.  In  1958,  the  first  satellite    by  the  United  States,  Explorer  1,  discovered  the  Van  Allen  radiation  belts  around  Earth.  Since  then,  other  scientific  satellites  have  added    to  our  knowledge  of  the  universe.  One  satellite,  in  particular,  the  Infrared  Astronomy  Satellite,  or  IRAS,  has  helped    out  many  mysteries  of  the  universe.
