As the result of a launch vehicle malfunction, the Intelsat VI(F-3) communications satellite failed to achieve geostationary orbit. The satellite is presently safe in a low-earth orbit pending a NASA Space Shuttle Program (SSP) mission to retrieve it and attach a solid rocket. This paper describes the recovery hardware design and the overall mission efforts undertaken to recover and reboost the satellite.
