Lincoln Experimental Satellite 1, also known as LES-1, was a communications satellite, the first of nine in the Lincoln Experimental Satellite program. Launched by the United States Air Force (USAF) on February 11, 1965, it pioneered many then-advanced technologies including active use of the military's SHF (super high frequency) band (7 to 8 GHz) to service hundreds of users. LES-1 did not have a successful operational life due to being placed in a suboptimal orbit, and it ceased transmissions in 1967. After 45 years of inactivity, LES-1 spontaneously resumed transmissions in 2012 making it one of the oldest zombie satellites.

Mimo że nie osiągnął zaplanowanej orbity, pomyślnie przetestował wiele urządzeń i technologii telekomunikacyjnych. Satelita pozostaje na średniej orbicie okołoziemskiej o trwałości szacowanej na 50 000 lat. (pl)
