Goonhilly Earth Station Ltd (GES) is an independent, privately-owned SME providing resilient large-scale satellite communications networks and infrastructure, expert 24/7 consultancy and support, and a range of services including uplink and broadcast, gateway operations, TT&C, carrier monitoring, and a complete range of satellite communications services from earth orbit through to deep space.
We have established the world’s first privately owned deep space communications network, providing services beyond geostationary orbit through our 24/7 operational control centre, and currently support numerous deep space missions, as well as the ability to offer additional capacity to existing NASA and ESA networks, using our largest, 32m Antenna.
Additionally, we have a 30m antenna with a supercooled feed assembly to support DSN and other applications including space situational awareness.
Our ambitious growth is underpinned by a successful commercial track record and a £24m investment from UK businessman Peter Hargreaves.
We have state of the art network and mission operation centre facilities at Goonhilly and are working on replicating these around the world, in collaboration with partners. The result will be the world’s first private global deep space communications network, supplementing the capacity offered by NASA and ESA.
As a designated Enterprise Zone - the UK government’s flagship programme for technology parks – we offer a vibrant and affordable place to do business, including our recently upgraded conference facilities for hire.
