Nasa Near Space Network

NASA's Near Space Network delivers critical communications and navigation services to missions observing the Earth, studying the Sun, and exploring the Moon and beyond. Through our network, spacecraft can send different types of data back to Earth, anything from an astronaut talking to mission control, a science image of a neutron star, and so much more.

This Earth-space connection, known as Space Communications and Navigation, connects missions out to 2,000,000 kilometers away with scientists.
