The Merritt Island Spaceflight Tracking and Data Network station, known in NASA parlance as MILA, is a radio communications and spacecraft tracking complex located on 61 acres (0.25 km2) at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida. The name MILA is an acronym for the "Merritt Island Launch Annex" to Cape Canaveral, which is how the site was referred to when spacecraft launches were primarily originating from the nearby cape.

The Merritt Island Spaceflight Tracking and Data Network station, known in NASA parlance as MILA, is a radio communications and spacecraft tracking complex located on 61 acres (0.25 km2) at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida. The name MILA is an acronym for the "Merritt Island Launch Annex" to Cape Canaveral, which is how the site was referred to when spacecraft launches were primarily originating from the nearby cape. MILA has 13 antennas to provide various communications services between spacecraft and NASA centers, as well as to track and range moving spacecraft. Currently, MILA serves as the primary voice and data link during the first 7 minutes of a Space Shuttle launch, and the final 13 minutes of a Shuttle landing at KSC. Though it sits on land at KSC, MILA is operated and managed by the Goddard Space Center.
