0.3 % would correspond to 3 mm difference in length of the pendulum.
After an hour, the difference between real and measured time would already be 10.9 s, and over an entire day, it would accumulate to 261.3 s, way too much for useful long term measurements.
Yet, it is an useful approximation for qualitative measurements, e.g. when Galileo Galilei did his fall experiments, he might have used a prendulum instead of his pulse for measuring.
Obviously the naming is not consistent among the wikipedia articles in different languages:
Intelsat 33e war ein kommerzieller Kommunikationssatellit des International Telecommunications Satellite Consortium (Intelsat) mit Sitz in Luxemburg.
Its named after the * International Telecommunications Satellite Consortium*
I was talking about Intelsat 33e which is was a communication satellite, not for espionage, on a geostationary orbit. The russian espionage satellites Olymp-K and Kosmos 1408 mentioned in the other replies, however are/were on a geosynchronous orbit and on low earth orbit, respectively, as you suggested.
Yes, since Bookworm, there is also non-free-firmware which before was located in non-free. I’ve skipped that for simplicity, as both follow the same rules and non-free-firmware was introduced basically for convenience.
Do you know if either of the non-free repos contain binary files without having the source available?
I know it does, that’s why I was curious about the novelty of that approach.

According to another source, Zurich has annually about 11 million visitors, but it didn’t provide any source for that statement.
