1-1000, 2-1000!
More good news today – udupendra has hit 1000 points! Excellent stuff saar – congratulations!
udupendra was one of the earliest people on this site, and has been a regular face for years now. This is also definitely not his first record here :) He was consistently topping the charts at BB before receiving some very stiff competition! Here’s hoping for many, many more answers from you!
Udupendra gets a star of honor – an achievement badge plus a special badge as well.
Today’s question’s dedicated to udupendra of course :) (although there’s no ‘1000’ funda in this question like there was in yesterday’s)
Very simple – identify the ‘system’ being depicted here.

Answer:
The three locations of NASA/JPL’s Deep Space Network. You will notice they are roughly 120 degrees apart, giving the ‘best’ coverage to track deep space spacecraft.
