Cebreros Station (also known as DSA 2 or Deep Space Antenna 2) is an INTA-operated, ESTRACK radio antenna station for communication with spacecraft located about 10 km east of Cebreros and 90 km from Madrid, Spain. A 35-metre diameter antenna that receives in X- and Ka-bands is located at the site. Station code is "CEB".
It provides daily support to Mars Express, Rosetta and Gaia.[1]
Two sister stations are New Norcia Station in Australia, and Malargüe Station in Argentina.
