How do you make your conclusion? Telstar 1 started blasting TV from space in 1962. I don't know how that required Gargarin or Shepard to be in their tin cans first. Also, we sent up SCORE in 1958, and famously Arthur C. Clarke wrote about using satellites for telecommunications in 1945. TIROS, the US's first weather satellite, preceded Gargarin. KH-1, the US's first spy satellite, meant for photographic surveillance of the Soviet Union, was even earlier. These certainly didn't require humans in tin cans first.
