A Satellite Ground Station is a facility that communicates with satellites in orbit around the Earth. It consists of large antennas and various equipment that send and receive signals to and from satellites. These stations play a crucial role in managing satellite operations, including data transmission, monitoring, and control. Ground stations are essential for various applications, such as weather forecasting, telecommunications, and global positioning systems (GPS). They help ensure that the information collected by satellites, like images of the Earth or data from scientific instruments, is transmitted back to researchers and users on the ground for analysis and decision-making.
