Arthur C. Clarke’s Extraterrestrial Relays

I’ve heard about Clarke’s paper a million times but have never actually seen it nor read it until now.

Here is the fac-simile of the paper published by Arthur C. Clarke where he lay down the principles of the satellite communication with satellites in geostationary orbits. (Wireless World, October 1945, pages 305-308)

Recently, there has been some big hype going on in the small county of Lexington. Lake Murray is home to the island called “Bomb Island” where the air force used to do test bombing runs and assorted other activities, leaving many pieces of history to be found..
