[QUOTE="william-1, post: 1011317, member: 193781"] Conversely Intelsat-904 can replace the 4 AOL transmissions on Galaxy-11 as it is reaching the end of use in geostationary orbit. Galaxy 11 was the first [URL='http://space.skyrocket.de/doc_sat/hs-702.htm']BSS-702[/URL] satellite. It was ordered in May 1997 and was successfully launched in December 1999 on an Ariane 4 rocket from Kourou, French Guiana. Galaxy XI has a payload of 64 active transponders; 24 operate in C-band and 40 operate in Ku-band. The spacecraft was designed for an end-of-life power of more than 10 kW for 15 years. The satellite used to provide service to North America and Brazil. Galaxy 11 suffers from a generic failure of the early [URL='http://space.skyrocket.de/doc_sat/hs-702.htm']BSS-702[/URL] model: the fogging of the concentric mirrors on the solar arrays leads to reduced available power.
