Designed by AT&T to relay media signals to homes around the world, its launch ushered in the era of live satellite TV broadcasts. For the first time ever, voice and video were beamed directly between the United States and Europe.

  1. Very interesting story, I hears that they were examining a type of tiger as well to see if it is really extint. What reminded me of that was the missing tail on the mammoth. That is the identifier for the tiger as well. Good job
