Deep Space Network Beam-Waveguide Station
thingiverse
A six-file, 3D printable model offers a unique perspective on Earth's counterpart to interplanetary spacecraft. This scale model (1:250) represents a 34-meter diameter Beam Waveguide (BWG) Deep Space Station. It includes the antenna's mechanical structure and microwave beam-waveguide system, illustrating its dish rotation and waveguide tube articulation. The model is from NASA's newest Deep Space Network (DSN) design, with stations in California, Spain, and Australia, more being built. Requiring white ABS plastic, the model has six print files totaling ten parts, fitting easily with acetone welding. However, it needs an 8X8-inch build platform, and instructions are available at spacecraftkits.com/BWG.html.
