| Free Virtual Summer Speaker Series Presentation"Le Direct" and the French Cable Station JULY 23, 2020 – 7:00 p.m.ONLINE THROUGH ZOOM | PREREGISTRATION REQUIRED |

|
|
| This year, the Marconi-RCA Wireless Museum features Chatham on the Air celebrating May 17, 1920 when RCA inaugurated service between Chatham Port and Norway, finally realizing Marconi’s dream of sustainable trans-Atlantic wireless communication.
Marconi’s competition, undersea cable, was already well established by then, having been developed and made commercially viable by the late 1800’s. From 1891 until 1959, the French Cable Station was the American termination point for an undersea telegraph cable that came directly to Orleans, MA from Brest, France. This engineering marvel was called "Le Direct” - a point-to-point cable almost 3,200 miles long which was completed in 1898.
The history of trans-Atlantic undersea telegraph cables and the significance of the French Cable Station's operation will be explored in a video presentation prepared and narrated by Joseph Manas, President of the French Cable Station Museum. As the French Cable Station Museum is closed for this season, we collaborated to share some of the historic site's stories virtually.
Dick Kraycir, Past President and Director Emeritus of Chatham Marconi Maritime Center, will provide a live and virtual introduction to the program focused on the history of long-distance communication. Bob Fishback, Vice President of Chatham Marconi Maritime Center, will offer concluding remarks following the video presentation. |
