On July 11, 1962, the first of the two Telstar satelites was launched into space.
It was the beginning of something big, as someone said. A few days later, a news program started with a picture of the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower side by side, each coming from different sides of the world.
And then Tornados put it to music. The Tornados became the first British band to have a # 1 in the US, or about two years before The Beatles.
