One of the first to suggest launching something like a satellite into space was the science fiction writer
In 1945, Arthur Clarkson suggested that a satellite could be placed in orbit in such a way that it would move in the same direction and at the same speed as the Earth. So-called "geostationary satellites" could be used for communications.
Scientists did not get Clarkson - until October 4, 1957
