<DIV>Telstar was lunched July 10. The TV production was July 12.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Henry Jaffe produced the Telstar Closed-Circuit production in
1962. One of my clients handed me a stack of correspondence a while back
concering the planning and execution of this telecast. From one of the charts,
it appears that two VR-1000C's were at Andover. I''ll post more here or on the
DC Video FB site when I get a chance.

<DIV>In the mean time, here is one of two photos from this collection (no, I
did not see an VR-1000 C shots):</DIV>

on this VERY day long ago our childhood TELSTAR I was launched.... and so
was my fascination with Sat Com- <BR>For those of you Non-space science folk
this is sure to be a memory though ... and a great song by Joe Meek of UK
but a hit indeed for the VENTURES (60s music buddies can add to this )
</DIV>
<DIV>John R. Pierce of Bell Labs fame was the father of TELSTAR, and later
in my life to become a great friend and of mine and a friend to the SMECC
museum project. In addition A.C. Dickieson, the project manager for TELSTAR,
ended up retiring in Sun City here and I got to know him as well. Add to
that James Early who did device development for the Telstar Project another
great mind and a great friend...Unfortunately all have passed on many years
ago.....add to that Eugene O'Neill and other... and look below in comments
and you will see some other articles about TELSTAR by some people I was
happy to call my friends... I miss them all but thankful to have had the
time I did with them. ok lets listen to the TELSTAR song by the
Ventures....</DIV>
