  1964-083D

---

NNS O-2 (30020, Oscar 2) was launched on 1964 Dec 13 by Thor Ablestar, but ran into troubles in less than a month. However, the beacon was still transmitting in 2010, which would make it the oldest working satellite.

GE-1

 1996-054A

---

The first Lockheed Martin Astro Space A2100 spacecraft was GE 1, built for GE Americom of Princeton, NJ. to replace Satcom K1. The satellite featured a liquid apogee engine with a single propellant tank and electric arcjet thrusters, and a hybrid C/Ku band communications payload. Mass is 2784 kg at launch. The satellite was built at the old RCA facility in East Windsor; manufacturing at the new Sunnyvale plant is due to begin in 1997.  

GE-1's initial use was mostly for TV distribution, with NBC as the biggest user. It will be placed at 103W to provide service to CONUS, Alaska, Hawaii, and the Caribbean.

GE-1 became AMC-1 when Americom was sold to SES Global in 2001 to become SES Americom.

Kosmos 2427

 2007-022A

---

Kosmos-2427 was launched on 2007 Jun 7 into a standard Kobal't-style orbit. Four days later it raised its orbit to 182 x 354 km; the orbit was then allowed to decay until Jun 19, when it was lowered.

One piece of debris was ejected soon after launch and reentered rapidly. Kosmos-2427 landed on Aug 22, probably around 1745 UTC.
