       REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF SPECIALTEMPORARY AUTHORITY
       PanAmSat Licensee Cor.(‘PanAmSat®), pursuant to Section 25.120 of the
Commission‘s Rules,‘ hereby requests a thity—day extension of is Special Temporary
Authority ("STA"), through November 11, 2005, to operate the Telemetry, Tracking and
Control ("TT&C") payload of Galaxy14 at 146° W.L *
        Galaxy 14 was Iaunched on August 13, 2005, Galaxy 14 is a replacement satelite
and cannot conductin—orbit testing (‘IOT") at ts assigned orbital location of 125® W.L
For this reason, PanAmSat requested, and the Commission granted, an STA for 30 days
to allow Galaxy 14 to conduct IOT at 146° W.L. rather than at ts assigned orbital
location. ‘The term ofthi intil STA ran through September 12. Subsequently,
PanAmSatrequested a thiny—day extension (through October 12) of ts STA. The
Commission has not acted on this extension request.
        Although 1O has been completed, PanAmSat needs for Galaxy 14 to remain at
146° W.L. longer than had been previously anticipated as resultofchanged
circumstances. Galaxy14 is part ofa contingency plan for maintaining service at 133°
W L. The International Bureau has authorized PanAmSat to launch Galaxy 15 as a
replacement satelite at 133° W.L.," and Galaxy 15 had been scheduled for Iaunch on
September 29, 2005Under this schedule, PanAmSat could have made certain, within
thtime period covered by the inital STA extension request, that Galaxy 15 had been
successfully launched and reached its 1Oorbitallocation before PanAmSat commenced
the relocation of Galaxy 14 from 146° W.L.to is assigned orbital location. The aunch
of Galay 15, however, has been delayed, and is presently scheduled for mid—October.
To take this development into account, and to build n a margin of error in case there are
further delays, PanAmSat is requesting a second 30—day extension of ts STA for Galny
14.
        PanAmSat‘s extension requestis supported by good cause. Grant ofthe request
will ensble PanAmSatto ensure continuity of service, which is unquestionably in the
public interest
         Accordingly, and for good cause shown, PanAmSatrespectfully requests a second
thirty (30) day extension of ts STA to operate the TT&C payload of Galaxy 14 at 146°
wl
      Questions with respect to this mattershould be directed to Joseph A. Godles,
PanAmSat‘s counsel, at (202) 429—4900.
