Here's the brief history
So apparently during in 1958 the United States of America built this tracking station as a warning system. During the cold war in the 1960's they deployed an Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) Stations to prevent Russian attacks. This was one of the stations built in their monitoring systems.








The view was spectacular...


In my last blogpost, I expressed our experience on route to the famous Macqueripe Radar Tracking Station. Below are some pictures of when we reached the top.

The view was beautiful as you can see (pictures below).

As we ventured closer to the dish we saw an abandon building and a closer look of the satellite and the surroundings.

Here are some of shots we captured.
