These course corrections were made by controllable vernier rockets and slight changes of the direction in the thrust of the main engine. When the Atlas had climbed above nearly all of the atmosphere, the computer told it to turn its nose parallel to the earth's surface. Other U.S. satellites were kicked into orbit by firing a final rocket from the ground...
