ESTRACK, Spacecraft communication station in New Norcia, Western Australia
The ESTRACK facility operates multiple antennas and communication systems designed to maintain contact with satellites and deep space probes throughout their missions.
The European Space Agency established ESTRACK's first deep space antenna in Western Australia during 1998 to support an increasing number of interplanetary missions.
Engineers and scientists from different countries collaborate at ESTRACK to coordinate space missions and gather data from various spacecraft exploring our solar system.
The facility provides over 15,000 hours of tracking support annually, maintaining communication with spacecraft through both S-band and X-band frequencies.
