From the days of Sputnik, to today's satellites, we're involved. Some send weather data, others are used by the military, some handle banking and credit card data, and still others are on a journey to a distant star, going where no one has ever gone. Here are a few links concerning satellites - including Milsats, Amateur satellites and more. You can find out more, and post questions, on the SATCOM forum at RR.
