Back in the day it was the only dish that could track targets tot he moon.

Since the Mars probe can talk directly with Earth and there is a deep space network and relay satellites in place it wont be needed, But it can certainly do it.

If you have never been to that dish, It's worth a run out, The pictures can't do justice to its size at all.

Is there a train line that can be seen from? I seem to remember passing something similar looking.

I had a quick glance, But really, I don't want to waste my time here on this planet reading the opinions of ignorant people.

There should be a program like AdBlock that blocks Comments.
