The whole flight could be controlled from the ground through a network of tracking stations which also allowed communication with the astronaut.
Tracking stations are sometimes located in the range to assess the progress of the launches.
The second project involves the modernisation of a number of existing tracking stations around the bay.
They may be in demand as sites for space tracking stations, meteorological stations, and so on.
In this type of tracking, a signal generated by a tracking station is received by the relay satellite and then retransmitted to a lower altitude satellite.
Tracking stations were checked and the area in a 20-m radius surrounding them was searched daily until all seeds had been cached or eaten.
The tracking station was closed in the mid-1970s.
On its path is built a large space satellite tracking station at the south end of the village.
