Stations & Services

Every antenna.
True to scale.

All 13 antennas of the network side by side — from the 30 m dish in Weilheim to the laser telescope in Tabernas. The yellow figure is a 1.8 m person — drag to turn the antennas.

Sites

Five sites, each with its own strengths.

Germany for national and geostationary missions, the polar stations Inuvik and O’Higgins for satellites in polar orbit, and Tabernas for optical communication.
