Ascension Island Today




Long ago vacated by NASA, the Ascension Island Operations building is one of the very few MSFN buildings not to be demolished. It is now The Challenger Outward Bound Centre of the 1st Ascension Island Scout Group.

In 2005, Les Smith from the UK visited the site and kindly shares these photos.

Shrouded in fog, the former Ascension Tracking Station operations building now sports camouflage and is the Scouts’ Challenger Outward Bound Centre.

This photo, taken from near the footings of the MSFN USB antenna, shows the Operations building, apparently in 2015.
