This paper will present (1) a discussion of some of the attractive features of a system using stationary or synchronous satellites, (2) some of the problem areas that we see in getting from where we are today to such a system, (3) a description of the NASA Syncom program, and (4) a very brief description of a more advanced synchronous satellite system.
