Satnogs station

About SatNOGS

SatNOGS is an integral part of the Libre Space Foundation. The project aims to build a global network of satellite ground stations. It is designed as an open source participatory project based on the users operating a ground station that is accessed via a web page for all of the network users. A basic ground station can be made up of commercial off the shelf components that are commonly available with a static omnidirectional antenna, to more complex stations with multiple movable antennas.

Very cool satellite named after the inventor of rocketry. Sadly Max Valier died while experimenting with liquid-fueled rockets and was the first fatality of the space age.
