On 9 June, a powerful new 35-metre antenna, presently undergoing acceptance
testing at Cebreros, Spain, successfully picked up signals and tracked
Rosetta and SMART-1. It is ESA's second deep-space ground station in its
class and adds Ka-band reception capability and high pointing precision to
the ESTRACK network.
