Antenada Cusub ee DSS-23 ee Goldstone waxay Bilowday Shaqada Shabakadda Deep Space Network
Antenada DSS-23 oo ah 34-mitir (114-foot) ayaa laga dhammeeyay xarunta Goldstone ee u dhow Barstow, California, bishii Ogosto 2026. Munaasabad jaridda xarigga ayaa dhacday 25-kii Ogosto, waxaana ay qayb ka tahay mashruuca Aperture Enhancement Project.
Dhismaha iyo Munaasabadda Furitaanka
Deep Space Station 23 (DSS-23) waa anten 34-mitir (114-foot) ah oo nooca multifrequency beam-waveguide ah, waxaana la dhammeeyay bishii Ogosto 2026. Waxay ku taal xarunta Deep Space Network ee Goldstone ee u dhow Barstow, California.
Hoggaamiyayaasha NASA iyo shaqaalaha ayaa la shirqaystay marti sharaf si ay u jarayaan xarigga antenada DSS-23 taariikhdu markay ahayd 25-kii Ogosto 2026. Waxaa la yidhi: "NASA leadership and personnel as well as dignitaries gathered at the complete DSS-23 antenna for a ceremonial ribbon cutting on Aug. 25, 2026."
Mashruuca Aperture Enhancement
DSS-23 waa antenadii ugu dambaysay ee lagu daray mashruuca Aperture Enhancement Project ee Deep Space Network, kaasoo bilaabmay 2009 si loo casriyeeyo. Mashruucu wuxuu beegsanayaa in la kordhiyo shabakadda lix antenooyin oo cusub oo 34-mitir ah.
Antenadaas dabacsan ee DSN waxay horumarin kartaa howlo badan oo ku shaqeeya mowjadaha kala duwan. Sida laga sheegay: "These versatile Deep Space Network dishes can enhance many missions operating over different radio frequencies.".
Maamulka iyo Doorka Shabakadda
Deep Space Network waxaa maamula Jet Propulsion Laboratory ee NASA, oo ah qayb ka mid ah Caltech ee Koonfurta California, oo u heellan barnaamijka SCaN. SCaN wuxuu ku yaal xarunta NASA ee Research and Technology Mission Directorate.
DSN waxay u ogolaanaysaa howlaha inay raadraacaan, amarro soo diraan, oo ay xog cilmiyeed ka helaan dayax-gacmeedyada fog. Sida qoraalku yidhi: "The DSN allows missions to track, send commands to, and receive scientific data from faraway spacecraft."
NASA's Deep Space Network added a new 34-meter antenna at its Goldstone complex in California on August 25, 2026, marking a milestone in the agency's long-running effort to expand deep-space communications capacity.
A New Dish for Deep-Space Communication
The Deep Space Station 23, or DSS-23, is a 34-meter (114-foot) multifrequency beam-waveguide antenna located at the Deep Space Network's Goldstone complex near Barstow, California. NASA leadership and dignitaries gathered at the completed antenna for a ceremonial ribbon cutting on August 25, 2026.
This versatile dish is designed to enhance many missions operating over different radio frequencies, allowing spacecraft far from Earth to be tracked, commanded, and monitored for scientific data. The antenna will boost the network's capacity and strengthen NASA's deep-space communications capabilities for decades to come.
Part of a Decade-Long Expansion Project
DSS-23 is the latest antenna added as part of the Deep Space Network's Aperture Enhancement Project, which began in 2009 to upgrade and expand the network by adding six new 34-meter multifrequency beam-waveguide antennas. The project aims to significantly increase the number of large-dish antennas available for deep-space missions.
These multifrequency beam-waveguide antennas are among the most advanced communication dishes in the world, capable of supporting a wide range of radio frequencies used by current and future NASA missions. The addition of DSS-23 represents continued progress in maintaining and growing the network's reach.
Managed by JPL for NASA's SCaN Program
The Deep Space Network is managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of Caltech, in Southern California for the agency's Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) Program. The SCaN Program is located at NASA Headquarters within the Research and Technology Mission Directorate.
This organizational structure ensures that the DSN remains a critical infrastructure for NASA's exploration efforts, providing reliable communication links between Earth and spacecraft operating in the solar system and beyond. The network's continued expansion reflects NASA's commitment to maintaining robust deep-space communication capabilities.
