Centro Espacial Teófilo Tabanera.

Deep in the scenic hills of Falda del Cañete, the Centro Espacial Teófilo Tabanera serves as the nerve center of Argentina’s space program. Operated by CONAE, this high-security compound manages satellite missions, processes cosmic data, and tests advanced aerospace hardware. While it is an active research and control facility rather than a standard tourist attraction, science enthusiasts can occasionally access the site through scheduled educational visits. The campus houses the Mario Gulich Institute for advanced space studies and a small museum showcasing the country's aerospace history, which dates back to the clandestine missile projects of the late 1970s. It offers a rare, highly technical look at South American space exploration, set against an unlikely and beautiful mountain backdrop.
