The Madrid Deep Space Communications Complex (MDSCC; Spanish: Complejo de Comunicaciones de Espacio Profundo de Madrid) is a deep-space communications complex in Robledo de Chavela, near Madrid, Spain. It is a Deep Space Network installation in Spain managed by the Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial (INTA) under bilateral cooperation between Spain and the United States in support of NASA. The complex forms one of the three sites of NASA's Deep Space Network (DSN), together with the complexes at Goldstone, California, and the Canberra complex in Australia. It also supports radio astronomy and very-long-baseline interferometry, including participation in the European VLBI Network (EVN).
