SCaN: Space Communication and Navigation - 5G in Space
NASA’s Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) program office builds, operates, and maintains NASA’s two primary communications networks – the Near Space Network and the Deep Space Network. These networks allow spacecraft near and far to send critical tracking, telemetry, command, and science data to Earth. SCaN also investigates new communications and navigation technologies so that these networks can support advanced missions. SCaN’s Commercialization, Innovation, and Synergies (CIS) office is dedicated to creating robust partnerships with industry, academia, and other government agencies to advance communications and navigation capabilities.
