It was fed by fiber-optic cables that siphoned copies of e-mails and other online traffic from one of the largest Internet hubs in the United States, the former employee says in court filings.

In 1956, the Soviet government approved the use of the R-7 missile for the launch of the artificial satellite. The special command and control infrastructure was now required to support the program. On May 8, 1957, the Soviet Ministry of Defense officially ordered to form a "Center on management and coordination of work of complex of means of measurements, communications and unified time service" and 13 detached Scientific Measurement Stations, or NIP.

NIP-18 in Vorkuta was built to support space launches from Plesetsk, which both entered service in 1966.

Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station is a large telecommunications site located on Goonhilly Downs near Helston on the Lizard peninsula in Cornwall, England, UK.

Currently owned by BT Group plc, it is the largest satellite earth station in the world with over 25 communications dishes in use (and over 60 dishes in total) – they provide a significant proportion of Great Britain's satellite connectivity and the site also links into undersea cable lines. The first dish, Antenna One (dubbed "Arthur"), was built on the site in 1962 to link with Telstar and received the first live transatlantic television broadcasts from the United States. It was the first open parabolic design and is 29.5 metres in diameter and weighs 1,118 tonnes. It is now a Grade II listed structure and is therefore protected. The largest dish is the 32 metre diameter "Merlin" (other dishes include Guinevere, Tristan and Isolde after characters in Arthurian legend).

The earth station is powered from the national grid but the site is equipped with five large diesel generators which can provide indefinite backup power in the event of a national grid power failure.

A wind generator farm near by is believed by many to be part of the complex, but it is in fact completely unconnected to BT and is linked to the national grid.

A visitor centre at the site attracts technically-minded tourists. Inside are many interactive exhibits, a cafe, shop and one of Britain's fastest cyber cafes (a one gigabit pipe and a theoretical maximum speed per iMac of 100Mbit). There are also tours around the main BT site and into the heart of the oldest dish, Arthur.

On 12 September 2006 it was revealed that Satellite Operations at Goonhilly are to be shut down in 2008 and moved to Madley in Herefordshire.]]>

Paradigm Services has a Skynet 5 satellite ground terminal presence at Colerne. It is situated within the Azimghur Barracks, adjoining the airfield.

Colerne is surely linked to RAF Rudloe Manor, if not also the Corsham Computer Centre. It is also rumoured that the airfield at Colerne may be used to shuttle VIPs in and out of the CCC.

Very important spy centre can be found at the unassuming location of Irton Moor, near the quaint seaside town of Scarborough. Back bench MPs in successive governments have failed gloriously in trying to find out precisely what goes on at this base, which MI5/6 operatives refer to as simply "Scarborough".

The 1:25000 OS map gives the full detail and labels it with the rather romantic title "Wireless Station". It dates back to the very early pre-WWII days of GCHQ, when that was known as the Government Codes and Ciphers School (GC&CS). Irton Moor is sometimes referred to as a Composite Signals Organisation (CSO) station.

The microwave beam from the BT cable under the Irish Sea, originated at BT's microwave towers at Holyhead on the Isle of Anglesey.

It continued through the BT towers at Gwaenysgor near Prestatyn in North Wales, Pale Heights near Kelsall in Cheshire on the edge of Delamere Forest and at Sutton Common near Macclesfield, Cheshire. It then joined up with the rest of the network down to the world famous landmark BT Tower in London.

The transmitter is a NATO facility, controlled from Northwood Headquarters along with three other VLF transmitters in Norway, Germany, and Italy.[1]

The characteristic triangular pattern of roads clearly visible on the aerial photograph indicates that this was a World War II military airfield, in this case operated by the Royal Navy Air Service as HMS Nuthatch. The transmitter is now operated by VT Communications.]]>

Television Hill in Baltimore, transmitter site of 5 out of the 7 major tv stations serving Baltimore. Three transmit from the tri-mast candelabra tower (red color), WBAL, WMAR, WJZ. 2 transmit from the single tower just to the northeast, WBFF, WNUV, which i also think handles communications for the city of Baltimore (i.e. police, fire, public works).

Four of the stations are also physically located on TV Hill, WJZ to the west of the candelabra tower, WBAL to the northeast (also home of WBAL-AM and WIYY-FM) and WBFF/WNUV which share facilities in the black roofed building with the dishes on the roof just southwest of the candelabra tower.]]>
