	Telstar 1, 2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Telstar 1 operated normally from launch until November 1962, when the command channel began to behave erratically.
		Telstar 2 was essentially identical to the Telstar 1 satellite.
		Telstar 2 differed from Telstar 1 by employing provisions for scientific information to be transmitted in real time via the microwave telemetry system so that telemetry could be obtained after the 2-yr timer had turned off the VHF beacon.

	Telstar
		Telstar 1 was the first commercial communications satellite; owned by AT&T and flown by NASA, it relayed the first transatlantic television transmissions between Andover, Maine, and stations in Goonhilly, England and Pleumeur-Bodou, France.
		Telstar 5 and 6 each carry 24 C-band and 28 Ku-band transponders (see frequency bands, while Telstar 7 carries 24 C-band and 24 Ku-band transponders but achieves the same radio-frequency transmitter power, of 3200 W, by using more powerful components.
		Telstar 8, to be operated as Intelsat America 8, will be launched in 2004 from Sea Launch's Odyssey Launch Platform by a Zenit-3SL rocket.

	LORAL SKYNET MARKS 40TH ANNIVERSARY OF TELSTAR 1
		Telstar 1 was launched from Cape Canaveral aboard a Boeing Thor Delta rocket and soon thereafter broadcast the first live television signal from Andover, Maine to Goonhilly Downs, England and Pleumeur-Bodou, France.
		Telstar 1's technology differed from previous "passive" satellites - large reflective balloons that reflected radio signals - in that it received a signal from the ground, amplified it and sent it back to earth.
		Telstar 1 had the ability to transmit either one television channel or roughly 500 simultaneous telephone calls.

		NASA was able to claim Telstar as a NASA supported project and even publish the report on the results of experimentation as a NASA publication (SP-32, a reprint of the Bell System Technical Journal articles about the project), as well as getting rights to any patentable inventions arising from the experiments.
		Telstar I was launched on July 10, 1962, and on that same day live television pictures originating in the United States were received in France.
		Telstar was the first satellite to use a TWT amplifier since transistor technology at the time was not capable of the 3 W power output at the frequency required.

	Telstar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Telstar was equipped with a helical antenna which received microwave signals from a ground station, then amplified and rebroadcast the signal.
		Telstar, which had ushered in a new age of the benevolent use of technology, actually became a victim of the belligerent uses of technology during the Cold War.
		Telstar 10 was launched in China in 1997 by APT Satellite Company, Ltd. The upper stage of the rocket underperformed, but the satellite used its significant stationkeeping fuel margin to achieve its operational geostationary orbit; it has enough on-board fuel remaining that will allow it to exceed its specified 13-year design life.

		Telstar was the first active communications satellite, the first satellite designed to transmit telephone and high-speed data communications, as well as the first privately owned satellite.
		A satellite earth station is a communications facility with a microwave radio transmitting and receiving antenna and required receiving and transmitting equipment for communicating with satellites.
		While the term 'unmanned' is not gender-specific [1], some prefer gender-neutral terms such as unpiloted or uncrewed space missions.

		Then as Telstar came over the horizon and a command was given to turn it on, there was a whoop that filled the radome.
		Telstar 1 is tiny by today's satellite standards at 175 pounds and 34 inches in diameter.
		While the IEEE plaque centers on the TV milestone, Telstar 1 was also used that same day for the first long distance telephone call via satellite between former AT&T Chairman Fred Kappel, and then-Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson.

	The Telstar Story (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Telstar, though, was the true ancestor of modern communication satellites and was also the first space vehicle to be owned by a company rather than a government - in this case AT andT of America - although it was operated by a consortium including NASA and the British General Post Office.
		However, because the Delta rockets used to launch Telstars 1 and 2 were not powerful enough to put their payloads into geosynchronous orbits, the satellites rose and set like the Moon.
		Telstar would be visible from Britain for 40 minutes and then invisible again for the next two and a half hours – an awkward phenomenon if a televised sporting event went into extra time.

		Telstar 2 was nearly identical to Telstar 1.
		The Telstar 2 satellite orbit had a higher apogee than Telstar 1, which increased the time in view of the ground stations and decreased the time in the Van Allen belts.
		Telstar 2 was launched in May 1963 and operated successfully for two years.

	Telstar Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Telstar Records was a record label founded in 1982 by Sean O'Brien and Neil Palmer with a government loan of £120,000.
		Telstar Records went bankrupt in 2004, largely due to the company's habit of giving large advances to artists such as Claire Sweeney, Victoria Beckham and Rosie Ribbons who failed to make them any money.
		However as most of Telstar's roster were not directly signed to the label, instead being either sub-licenced or part of number of joint ventures, BMG (soon to be merged with Sony) declined in buying the label's assets outright.
