Cheerio Intelsat III, 2024
Text: INTELSAT III SATELLITE · Like the Early Birds, these satellites will hang thousands of miles above the earth. They will be sent up in 1968. Each one can bounce 1200 telephone calls - and four television channels - from one side of the earth to the other all at the same time. They rotate with the earth and always remain above the same spot on the earth. They get their energy from solar energy cells. · CHEERIOS KID · This is the Cheerios Kid. He gets his enery from Cheerios! Like you he needs go-power every day. And a breakfast of Cheerios with milk is packed with muscle-building protein and energy fo go-power. Get yourself Go. Get Cheerios!
