    Ever wonder how we communicate with the spacecraft across our solar system? We use a collection of giant radio antennas spaced out across the globe, called the Deep Space Network. The DSN just added its newest member, DSS-53, in Madrid.

    Built in Under 60 Seconds: The DSN Welcomes a New Antenna
    NASA has welcomed a powerful new radio antenna to its global network of parabolic dishes, which communicate with spacecraft throughout the solar system.
