Pioneer 1

Pioneer 1 (also known as Able 2) was an American space probe, the first under the auspices of NASA, which was launched by a Thor-Able rocket on 11 October 1958. It was intended to orbit the Moon and make scientific measurements, but due to a guidance error failed to achieve lunar orbit and was ultimately destroyed upon reentering Earth's atmosphere. The flight, which lasted 43 hours and reached an apogee of 113,800 km (70,700 miles), was the second and most successful of the three Thor-Able space probes.

Requires BG for 1 non-essential part. No rechargeable electricity, as neither did Pioneer 1. Roughly 1,000 m/s of DeltaV for maneuvering. No science equipment, meant for this to work as NASA intended, a test probe to reach the Moon.
