Applications Technology Satellite 3, or ATS-3, was a long-lived American experimental geostationary weather and communications satellite, operated by NASA from 1967 to 2001. It was at one time reputed to be the oldest satellite still in operation. As of 1995, NASA referred to the ATS-3 as "The oldest active communications satellite by a wide margin." On November 10, 1967, ATS-3 took NASA's first color photo (digital image mosaic) of the full-disk Earth, which was subsequently used on the cover of the first Whole Earth Catalog.

  • O ATS-3 (da série Applications Technology Satellite) foi um satélite de comunicação lançado pela NASA em 5 de Novembro de 1967 a partir da Estação da Força Aérea de Cabo Canaveral por intermédio de um foguete Atlas-Agena D. O ATS-3 se tornou um dos experimentos mais longevos. Lançado pela NASA como um satélite de comunicação geostacionário, permaneceu em operação de 1967 a 2011. Ele foi certa vez declarado como o mais antigo satélite ativo existente. Em 1995, a NASA se referiu a ele como "The oldest active communications satellite by a wide margin". (pt)
  • ATS 3 (Applications Technology Satellite 3) fue un satélite artificial estadounidense dedicado a probar nuevas tecnologías y dar servicio de comunicaciones. Fue lanzado el 5 de noviembre de 1967 y puesto en órbita geoestacionaria. Los objetivos del satélite eran, entre otros, investigar técnicas de estabilización mediante giro y probar comunicaciones mediante VHF y banda C. Además proporcionó servicios de comunicaciones a áreas del océano Pacífico y la Antártida, transmitió los Juegos Olímpicos de México 1968, sirvió para las comunicaciones de emergencia en el terremoto de México de 1985 y durante el desastre del monte Saint Helens. Dio apoyo de comunicaciones durante los alunizajes del programa Apolo. También envió las primeras imágenes en color desde el espacio y retransmitió regularment (es)
