NASA’s Deep Space Network has a facility located just outside Canberra in Tidbinbilla, where the CSIRO run the Deep Space Communication Network. It is a radio telescope that listens to radio signals further than 1000 kilometres above the Earth – both manmade and potential messages from other lifeforms! It is currently receving signals and messages from Perserverance the Mars Rover, as well as Juno the mission to Jupiter, and lots of other space craft.
We spent a morning there so here are some photos:







Wow -Wow – what fantastabillatic photos of you space nuts – you really are -out of this world!!- Loved your information Jimi – really informative and now I know a lot more about it. Thanks for sharing so much, it is good to know what you have been doing. You must have loved the Tidbinbilla centre – it would have been amazing to see so much and hear about it all. (Mazzy I think I invented a new word up there?) Can you hear in one of those space suits?
The kitties are doing really well – and settling very well. Heaps of love from Granny & Poppsy xxxxxx
Fab photos and great description Jimi, glad you are all having such a good time, lots of love, Grandma & Grandad XX
