Pleumeur-Bodou Ground Station was an early ground station in north-west France, and one of the first in the world. It was the site of the first satellite transmission between the USA and Europe in the early morning of 11 July 1962 , lasting 19 minutes on the satellite's seventh orbit.
The tracking station was developed by France Télécom, now known as Orange S.A.. The site was built by the Centre national d'études des télécommunications, which became France Télécom R&D in 2000.
