The Alaska Satellite Facility's new 11-meter antenna is attached to its base on UAF's West Ridge by technicians
from L3 Datron out of Simi Valley, Calif. The antenna will gather satellite data about
land surface, biosphere, atmosphere, oceans and outer space for NASA's Near Earth
Network. It's one of several strategically similar antennas, most of which are located
near polar regions.
