23rd Space Operations Squadron, Detachment 1 B-roll
Space Base Delta 1
Aug. 11, 2022 | 8:56
U.S. Space Force Sgt. Maxwell Shute, 23rd Space Operations Squadron, Detachment 1 contracting officer representative, takes us on a tour of the Thule Tracking Station at Thule Air Base, Greenland, Aug. 11, 2022. Shute takes us inside a radome and through the tunnels connecting to the main building, designed to allow safe passage during the winter months. B-roll also features timelapses and exterior footage of the station.

Known as callsign POGO, the station is the northernmost unit of seven worldwide tracking stations in the Satellite Control Network. A component of Space Delta 6 - Cyberspace Operations, Det 1’s mission is to provide telemetry, tracking and commanding operations to the U.S. and allied government satellite programs. The detachment’s extreme northern location allows contact with polar orbiting satellites 10-12 times per day ranging in altitude from 120 miles to 24,800 miles above the earth's surface.
