Maine Historical Society
Andover, Maine, was an unlikely location to make space-age history.
Nevertheless, the Oxford County community of 762 people with a smattering of small businesses became known world wide on July 11, 1962 when the Telstar satellite, launched a day earlier, sent and received signals from the Andover Earth Station.
