“Through this unique means I convey to you, and to all mankind, Americas wish for peace on Earth and goodwill toward men everywhere. On December 19, 1958, this message from President Eisenhower was the first radio broadcast transmitted to Earth from outer space. The broadcast was made from a US Army communications satellite launched the day before. The satellite’s batteries failed 12 days later, and it burned upon reentering the Earth’s atmosphere on January 21, 1959. You can listen to the broadcast here: https://youtube/watch?v=ibVj97TIjtk&feature=youtu.be
