Astronauts, mission controllers, and scientists depend upon the reliable transmission of information between Earth and spacecraft in low Earth orbit (LEO) or deep space.

As a new Network Manager, your job will be to build and upgrade a complex communications network in order to support scientific missions.

Objectives:

• Build the Near Earth Network. Enable periodic communication with satellites in low Earth orbit.

• Build the Space Network. Deploy a constellation of geosynchronous relay satellites to support LEO missions that require continuous coverage.

• Build the Deep Space Network. Support interplanetary spacecraft missions with powerful antennas.

• Manage and Improve Your Networks. Manage your network usage, deal with disasters, and research upgrades to enhance your networks capabilities.

• Support NASA Missions. Advance your networks to unlock special NASA missions that show the networks in action.
