The Euclid spacecraft is currently communicating with ESA’s Space Operations Centre in Darmstadt, Germany, via ESA's tracking station at Malargüe in Argentina.
The Malargüe station is ESA's newest tracking station and is located 30 km south of Malargüe, about 1,200 km west of Buenos Aires. DSA 3 hosts a 35m antenna with transmission and reception in X-band and reception in Ka-band.

ESA's 35-metre radio antenna in Malargüe, Argentina, has had a major refurbishment. Extenstive modifications made will now allow the ESTRACK network to support future mission like Euclid, launching in 2022, and to transfer data at much higher rates.Flickr
