well, what a fantastic re-entry & splashdown for #ArtemisII 🎉

gratz to everyone at #NASA (especially the #DSN & #TDRS folks 💕), #CSA, & #ESA 👏👏👏

#Artemis  

the important #ArtemisII numbers from #NASA’s #DSN 🎉 👀

RANGE
412.00 thousand km

DSS-43 & DSS-34 are both communicating with #Artemis on S-band:

DSS-43 has downlink @ 3Mb/sec and -110 dBm

DSS-34 has downlink and uplink

(not shown: at the time this screenshot was taken DSS-34 had downlink @ 3Mb/sec and -110 dBm & it’s uplink was transmitting @ 0.2 kW

fantastic work by everyone out at #CDSCC and the rest of the DSN 👏👏👏

it looks like DSS-43 & DSS-34 out at #CDSCC^ are setting up to communicate with #ArtemisII during their ##TLI burn @ 10:49 local time (AEDT)… 👀

ETA: it looks like the DSN will just be watching & waiting as #Orion has switched back to #TDRS for the TLI burn – I’m guessing DSN is pointed & tracking Orion on standby in case they’re needed (🤞 not)

#DSN on #ART2
#NASA
#Artemis

^ the #Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex

note: #DSN uses a “follow the sun” approach for operating antennas, so the antennas at #MDSCC in #Madrid are currently being operated by the ops team at #CDSCC in #Canberra since it’s day time here in #Aus & night time in Spain 🙃

normally there’s only a skeleton maintenance crew on site at the Deep Space Communication Complexes overnight but I expect there are some additional staff on site (or on call) just in case for such important mission support

you can see what’s happening on the #DSN Now website, part of #NASA’s #EyesOn visualisation tools

https://eyes.nasa.gov/apps/dsn-now/dsn.html

antennas showing “ART2” are currently in direct comms with #ArtemisII & antennas showing “DSN” are mostly^ tasked to #Artemis mission support but not currently communicating with the spacecraft

– antennas with “squiggly lines” going in both directions are both transmitting & receiving data (Tx & Rx)

– antennas with a squiggly line going in one direction is currently either transmitting or receiving data

– antennas with a sine wave line have carrier lock but aren’t transmitting or receiving (not shown)

– details about the comms for the selected antenna are shown in the panel at the bottom of the page

you can see in the attached pic that antennas DSS-54 & DSS-56 at #MDSCC (the Madrid Deep Space Communication Complex) are currently communicating with ArtemisII – 54 is both Tx & Rx on S-band & 56 is Rx on S-band and data rates look great
 
 
 
^ I say “mostly” ‘coz “DSN” usually means testing or maintaining – one or two antennas may be undergoing maintenance atm rather than supporting ArtemisII, I don’t have complete visibility of the antenna schedule 💁‍♀️

successful handover to #DSN, w00t! 🎉

“#Austria’s counter-intelligence can do little: under Austrian law, #espionage cannot be prosecuted unless it is carried out against national interest. Despite the #DSN’s recommendations, Vienna has shown little interest in expelling diplomats or taking other measures against Russian operatives.

Star trackers 🎇 are known for their accuracy, making them indispensable for #DeepSpace missions, where other reference points might not be available. They capture images of the night sky, comparing them to an onboard star map 🌌. The Deep Space Network* (#DSN) extends navigation capabilities by employing large antennas 📡 to track spacecraft https://findyourconstellation.com/how-space-missions-navigate-using-constellations

The installation of a new 34-meter radio antenna dish at the NASA Deep Space Network site at Goldstone, California is going well. #NASA #NASA_JPL #DSN
https://youtu.be/zbyPCnHsXME

Here is a fascinating time-lapse video of the full construction, assembly and installation of NASA’s Deep Space Station 53 (DSS-53) at the Deep Space Network’s Madrid complex in Spain.

The video covers the period from November 2018 to March 2020. The antenna became fully operational in late February 2022.

Construction of the new 34m antenna DSS-23 at NASA's Deep Space Network (DSN) site at Goldstone, CA, is progressing well. On Dec 18, the 34-meter-wide 133-ton steel framework for the Deep Space Station 23 (DSS-23) reflector dish was installed on a 20-meter-high alidade – a platform above the antenna's pedestal that will steer the reflector during operations.

The new antenna is expected to be operational in 2026.

@uwuhaeckse #DSS43 📡 is the only antenna in the #NASA #DSN that talks to #VGR2 🛰️ because its flight trajectory had it head off ‘below’ the plane of the ecliptic (‘south’ from earth’s perspective), and 43 is the only antenna in the southern hemisphere powerful enough to communicate with it. The 70m antennas in the northern hemisphere don’t have line-of-sight, but even if they did they could only receive data 😢

#VGR1 headed off ‘above’ the plane of the ecliptic, so all the 70m DSN antennas have line of sight & can all still Rx. but for Tx we need to use 43 ‘coz it’s the only 70m with a 100kW S-Band transmitter that has enough juice to send commands to the spacecraft. Rx from VGR1 is handled by arraying multiple antennas to create a larger effective (virtual) dish size, ‘coz it’s further away than VGR2 - remember that these spacecraft only have transmitters that push out ~23W (rated output, I expect they’ve fallen off a little over time). by the time it reaches earth, the signal Is about a billionth of a billionth of a watt (attowat) 🤯 that’s why they ask you to turn off devices 🚫📻 to “help us listen to whispers from space” 🤫
