Boeing 702SP ABS-3A On-orbit and Operating in Space BI46198

The world’s first all-electric propulsion satellite, built by Boeing for Bermuda-based ABS, is now operational after an on-orbit handover on August 31, 2015. The ABS-3A, a 702SP (small platform) satellite, expands ABS’ communications services in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The ABS-3A spacecraft was the world’s first all-electric propulsion satellite to be built and launched – part of a stacked pair launched in March with a 702SP satellite built for Eutelsat, based in Paris. The spacecraft’s all-electric xenon-ion propulsion system contains a sufficient quantity of the inert, non-hazardous element xenon to extend the satellite’s operations beyond the expected spacecraft design life of 15 years. Boeing is under contract to build a second 702SP satellite for ABS, designated ABS-2A, which will be delivered and launched in early 2016.Photographic Prints are printed on high gloss, heavy photographic paper using the finest Canon archival inks.
