Just curious to know which spacecraft took the very first full Earth globe view ?
Maybe one of the ATS satellites ? ( Application Technology Satellite )

Bob,
I can't see the topic with that number ... I did find something about a Navy Dodge Test satellite but that one was launched in July 1967, while the ATS satellites are 1966 ... Do You have a link ? |
