Question: Why did the union, that invented the world's first satellite, complain about U.S. actions in the Korean War, to the council that sanctioned Iran over their nuclear program?

In 1957 the Soviet Union launched the world's first artificial satellite, Sputnik 1. Since then, about 6,600 satellites from more than 40 countries have been launched. According to a 2013 estimate, 3,600 remained in orbit. Of those, about 1,000 were operational; while the rest have lived out their useful lives and become space debris. Approximately 500 operational satellites are in low - Earth orbit, 50 are in medium - Earth orbit (at 20,000 km), and the rest are in geostationary orbit (at 36,000 km). A few large satellites have been launched in parts and assembled in orbit. Over a dozen space probes have been placed into orbit around other bodies and become artificial satellites to the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, a few asteroids, a comet and the Sun. <SEP> Since 2005, Iran's nuclear program has become the subject of contention with the international community following earlier quotes of Iranian leadership favoring the use of an atomic bomb against Iran's enemies and in particular Israel. Many countries have expressed concern that Iran's nuclear program could divert civilian nuclear technology into a weapons program. This has led the UN Security Council to impose sanctions against Iran which had further isolated Iran politically and economically from the rest of the global community. In 2009, the US Director of National Intelligence said that Iran, if choosing to, would not be able to develop a nuclear weapon until 2013. <SEP> following pressure by the american rocket society, the national science foundation, and the international geophysical year, military interest picked up and in early 1955 the army and navy were working on project orbiter, two competing programs: the army's which involved using a jupiter c rocket, and the civilian / navy vanguard rocket, to launch a satellite. at first, they failed: initial preference was given to the vanguard program, whose first attempt at orbiting a satellite resulted in the explosion of the launch vehicle on national television. but finally, three months after sputnik 2, the project succeeded; explorer 1 became the united states' first artificial satellite on 31 january 1958. <SEP> In the resulting Battle of Pusan Perimeter (August–September 1950), the U.S. Army withstood KPA attacks meant to capture the city at the Naktong Bulge, P'ohang-dong, and Taegu. The United States Air Force (USAF) interrupted KPA logistics with 40 daily ground support sorties that destroyed 32 bridges, halting most daytime road and rail traffic. KPA forces were forced to hide in tunnels by day and move only at night. To deny matériel to the KPA, the USAF destroyed logistics depots, petroleum refineries, and harbors, while the U.S. Navy air forces attacked transport hubs. Consequently, the over-extended KPA could not be supplied throughout the south. On 27 August, 67th Fighter Squadron aircraft mistakenly attacked facilities in Chinese territory and the Soviet Union called the UN Security Council's attention to China's complaint about the incident. The US proposed that a commission of India and Sweden determine what the US should pay in compensation but the Soviets vetoed the US proposal. <SEP> the struggle related to the constitutional movement continued until 1911, when mohammad ali shah was defeated and forced to abdicate. on the pretext of restoring order, the russians occupied northern iran in 1911, and maintained a military presence in the region for years to come. during world war i, the british occupied much of western iran, and fully withdrew in 1921. the persian campaign commenced furthermore during world war i in northwestern iran after an ottoman invasion, as part of the middle eastern theatre of world war i. as a result of ottoman hostilities across the border, a large amount of the assyrians of iran were massacred by the ottoman armies, notably in and around urmia. apart from the rule of aqa mohammad khan, the qajar rule is characterized as a century of misrule.
