Honeysuckle Creek Tracking Station

Part of the Manned Space Flight Network 1967-1974
Part of the Deep Space Network 1974-1981

The aim of this site is to bring together information about the Honeysuckle Creek Tracking Station – a vital part of NASA’s tracking network – in appreciation of those who worked there as part of mankind’s great adventure in space. I hope that this site might evolve as more Honeysuckle material comes to light. If you know of any other information you think should be linked, or if you have something that could be included here, please contact me (see About). It would be greatly appreciated! Doubtless you will find many “holes” in the site – which we hope will be filled in the not-to-distant future. To get back to the main menu at any point, just click on the picture of the antenna at top left. All photos, stories and essays are copyright to the respective owners. Please check before using them.

The Honeysuckle crest (above) was produced in the early days of the operation of the station.
