China will lose access to two important and strategic space satellite-tracking stations in Australia, with their Swedish owners citing the "complexity" of doing business with Beijing.
The Swedish Space Corporation (SSC), owned by the Swedish Government, operates 11 satellite-tracking facilities around the world, including the Dongara and Yatharagga stations south of Geraldton in Western Australia.
The Dongara station is primarily used by US government agencies such as NASA.
The Swedish government has built a satellite tracking facility in Australia that is used by NASA? Why isn't Australia building them on Australian soil?
