Description
The Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) is the heart of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Space Network. TDRSS is a space based system of geosynchronous satellites, managed by the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) and includes the GSFC Network Control Center (NCC) and the White Sands Complex (WSC) in New Mexico, that together provide near continuous communications and tracking services to low earth orbiting spacecraft, launch vehicles, and various suborbital platforms.
With the addition of the Guam Remote Ground Terminal (GRGT) scheduled to be operational in July 1998, TDRSS will be capable of providing continuous global communications and tracking services.
