Intelsat 10-02 (or IS 10-02, Intelsat 1002, IS-1002, Intelsat Alpha-2, Intelsat X-02 and Thor 10-02[1]) is a communications satellite operated by Intelsat.[4] Intelsat 10-02 is the first operational communications satellite to have its service life extended by Mission Extension Vehicle-2, while still in service, in 2021.[5]

Launch

[edit]

Intelsat 10-02 was launched by a Proton-M launch vehicle from Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan, at 22:27:00 UTC on 16 June 2004.[6]

Capacity and coverage

[edit]

The 5,576 kg (12,293 lb) satellite provides digital broadcasting, telephone, and broadband internet access to users in Europe, South America, Africa and the Middle East through its 36 Ku-band, and 70 C-band transponders after parking over 1° West longitude.[6]

Thor 10-02

[edit]

Telenor uses half of the Ku-band capacity of the satellite, which is marketed as Thor 10-02.[4]

Docking to MEV-2

[edit]

On 12 April 2021, Northrop Grumman's MEV-2 satellite successfully rendezvoused and docked to Intelsat 10-02. MEV-2 will extend IS 10-02's service life by returning it to a proper geosynchronous orbit.[5][7][8] The maneuver was completed at 17:34 UTC, marking the first time a satellite servicer has docked with an in-service commercial satellite in geosynchronous orbit (GEO). The two spacecraft will stay locked together for five years to extend the life of IS 10-02, which was running low on fuel after being in orbit since 2004.[9]
