The 30-foot continuous wave ranging process antenna once located here provided numerous types of data including biomedical data, range measurement, telemetry, and voice communications.
The Unified S-Band System was installed primarily for manned lunar missions, but it was also used to track some scientific spacecraft and the ALSEP packages. It had a 9m diameter antenna located in front of the T&C building.
