Communications tower

A communications tower was a tower of the Terra Nova colony housing the communications technology.

In 2151, Ensign Travis Mayweather from the landing party of Enterprise NX-01 told Captain Jonathan Archer that they accessed the schematics of the communications tower. Archer told him to see if the data buffer was still intact.

A photograph of the communications tower including its satellite dish was part of the data from the historical archive. (ENT: "Terra Nova")

Scene 11 of the episode, scripted and planned to be filmed on Monday 13 August 2001, had Mayweather inspecting a panel at the communications tower when suddenly hearing a hawk. This scene would've also included a prop data buffer. (Call sheet)
