Sitting down with the whole family in front of the television set for an evening together is a serious part of the American entertainment experience. After all, in a world of quickly changing technology and more time spent isolated in front of computer monitors, nothing is quite as unifying as one of the major pastimes of enjoying movies, shows, and serious documentaries together. Whether it’s knowing where one was watching a particularly important newscast or simply remembering happy holidays spent with the whole family watching a classic, television has mattered for a long time, even before the fancy options like HDTV made it even more integral to one’s fun times. And if anything has made a major change in how people experience their entertainment, it’s definitely satellite TV.

Watching that kind of programming gives people access to all kinds of weird and unique things they’ve never thought of before.Other Posts:First pan-African satellite shipped to KourouCreditors give WorldSpace one more month to payTelstra Orders $3.5 Million Iridium-Based Systems from Beam CommunicationsArmy Orders Mobile Satellite Devices From ComtechNPOESS Space Segment Critical Design Audit completedSES operates under […]
