Madrid Deep Space Communications Complex NASA, Community of Madrid, Spain

Deep Space in Spain!

I love all things space and NASA, so I made sure to stop by when I was in Madrid. There's no public transport to get there, so if you don't have a car you should get a bus from Madrid to one of the nearby towns and get a taxi there (I went to Navas del Rey, but the main town there is Robledo de Chavela). The visit is free, but you have to call them before going there just so they know you're coming. The museum is small but very informative, and the antennas are simply amazing. A must-see for any space nerd.

    Incredible even if small
    Whilst in a walk in the countryside we ended up here and decided to visit it. It’s pretty small (just a museum with two rooms) however it is free and very interesting. If you’ve been in the NASA centre in Houston it is a very small version of it

    A bit outdated but worth to stop by
    This is a small but free museum (check for the limited opening times) where you could see all kinds of memories of NASA's deep space missions and more. It's a bit outdated but still interesting nonetheless. The antennas are very impressive too.
