The U.S. Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) is a network of American communications satellites used by NASA since 1983. The system replaced the old Manned Spaceflight Network (MSN), a series of ground stations and ships that supported all manned space missions from Mercury to Apollo
NOTES:
- Requires the Space Shuttle addon to view satellites TDRS-1 to 7
- For this reason, seven shuttle missions will be modified, namely STS-6, STS-26, STS-29, STS-43, STS-54, and STS-70
- There are a total of 13 satellites launched, 9 are currently active
- TDRS-2 is not available as it was destroyed during the 1986 Challenger disaster
