Abstract
The launch of the joint Canada/U. S. CTS/Hermes satellite on January 17, 1976 made available an experimental satellite designed to operate at effective isotropic radiated power levels at least 10 times greater than those of previous communications satellites. Using Hermes, the concept of broadcasting television by satellite directly to small inexpensive ground terminals has been demonstrated to be technically feasible.
