Many radio stations air programs on short and medium wave not only from the respective country but also via transmitters in other countries. Broadcasts of various stations from across the world can be listened to on the Internet. These and many other activities in telecommunications have become possible owing to the telecommunications satellites either circulating round the Earth or fixed at certain points above the Equator. By the early 1960s communication between radio transmission centers across the world took place via cable, via networks of broadcast relay stations or in other ways. On 4 Oct. 1957 the first artificial satellite of the Earth (Sputnik) was launched by the Soviet Union. On 10 July 1962 the US launched into orbit the first telecommunications satellite called Telstar 1 equipped for reception and re-broadcasting of radio and television programs, of phone calls and telegraph messages etc. With an elliptic orbit approaching the Earth at 952 km and getting away from it at 5632 km that facility laid the beginnings of a new era in communications. Another facility had the same role – the Syncom 2 satellite launched in equatorial or also known as circle or geostationary orbit, on 26 July 1963 at a height of about 35,760 km above the surface of the Earth. This orbit was described for the first time by Herman Potochnik in 1928 but became widely known in 1945 thanks to novelist Arthur Clark who suggested using it for global radio and television broadcasting. The geostationary orbit is located at some 36,000 km above the Equator and its length is 265,000 km. Any body found on that orbit is in gravity equilibrium versus gravitation from the Sun, the Earth and the Moon. Besides, if it travels with the angular speed of rotation of the Earth, this body or this satellite will be found permanently in the same point above a certain region of the planet. In this way it can be used to air round-the-clock radio signals to the same place of the Earth. Today the geostationary satellites carry out a huge number of communications. They are equipped with generators or with solar panels for electric energy, because they receive and broadcast an enormous amount of information. Dozens of geostationary satellites hang between 105 degrees western longitude and 75 degrees eastern longitude. In Bulgaria radio and television programs from that orbit are received with dishes put on roofs or balconies with signals coming from the Greek satellite Hellas 2 and from other satellites. Describing the communications satellites we should not forget the ones with elliptic orbits, for instance the ones used by Russia for signal coverage of polar areas. For the purpose they have at least three satellites so as to provide around-the-clock signal. There are also systems for direct reception of radio programs from the satellites Worldspace, Sirius, XM etc. (The big hit in the chart in 1962 was the melody "Telstar" by the Tornados). 

Radio calendar
