- Awarua Satellite Ground Station (formerly Awarua Tracking Station) is an Earth station built initially to support the European Space Agency Ariane 5 ES ATV (Automated Transfer Vehicle) launch campaigns. Located in New Zealand, it was developed by Venture Southland, a joint committee of the Invercargill City Council, Southland District Council and Gore District Council. The site on Awarua Plains was chosen because of its high latitude, low horizons and isolation from sources of radio interference. It has a fibre-optic broadband link to the Internet. The station was first used in 2008 to track Jules Verne, and subsequently four more Automated Transfer Vehicles servicing the International Space Station. The station now supports many of the well known names in the small-sat world. (en)
