Watch CA? Recent Earthquakes near MARS. Just so happens ‘Goldstone Deep Space Communications Complex is in Mars CA.
NASA links?
When does a Bird Sing? “Goldstone has the Bird?”
So many links and connections, perhaps this deserves more digging.

The Goldstone Deep Space Communications Complex (GDSCC), commonly called the Goldstone Observatory, is a satellite ground station located in the Mojave Desert near Barstow in the U.S. state of California. Operated by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), its main purpose is to track and communicate with space missions. It is named after Goldstone, California, a nearby gold-mining ghost town.[3]
The complex includes the Pioneer Deep Space Station (aka DSS 11), which is a U.S. National Historic Landmark. The current communications complex is one of three[4] in the NASA Deep Space Network (DSN), the others being the Madrid Deep Space Communications Complex in Spain and the Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex in Australia.”
