... which were within the orbit of Telstar-1 and a handful of other satellites. The increased radiation destroyed the satellite's electronics, causing it to fail. The test also caused electromagnetic damage in Hawaii due to the blast being much more powerful than expected.

Telstar-1, the first telecommunications satellite, met an untimely demise only 7-months into its service life. On July 9, 1962 the United States exploded a nuclear bomb in space, codenamed Starfish Prime. The explosion created several man-made radiation belts... cont'd

I had to cut off the boom with the nuclear reactor so that you can actually see details. It would have been gigantic. Each module is roughly Skylab sized.

A Soyuz 7K-T docks with the MKBS. This was a Soviet space station concept that would act as a central hub for a whole ecosystem of orbital stations and vehicles that was collectively known as MOK. The modules were planned to launch on N1s.
