PIA23617: Goldstone's DSS-23 Antenna (Artist's Concept)


Goldstone’s DSS-23 Antenna (Artist’s Concept)

Caption:

This artist's concept shows what Deep Space Station-23, a new antenna dish at the Deep Space Network's complex in Goldstone, California, will look like when complete in several years. DSS-23 will communicate with NASA's deep space missions using radio waves and lasers. Retractable covers will be able to fan out across the mirrors at the center of the dish to protect them from the elements.
