Intelsat

by Ben Cahoon, 14 March 2008

Here is the logo of Intelsat which was used on a flag until 2001. They did not tell me the date of adoption of this logo, but I was told it WAS used as a flag, with the logo as shown above centered on a white flag. It should be noted that this is the flag of Intelsat as an International organization, before 2001. Intelsat today, as a private company has its own flag which is its logo now (http://www.spacemart.com/images/intelsat-logo-bg.jpg).

The INTELSAT logo displayed above - a green or turquoise colored satellite dish was adopted after Intelsat's move from L'Enfant Plaza to the new Headquarters on Connecticut Ave in 1985. It was adopted ca. 1985-1986 at the direction of then Director General Richard Colino.

I worked for INTELSAT (the international organization) from 1978-1994. The original logo was a simple design of a black globe with 3 satellites circling it and the word Intelsat underneath - all inside a simple circle.
