COPAS*-SARSAT** is a satellite system designed to provide distress alert and location data to assist search and rescue (SAR) operations using spacecraft and ground facilities to detect and locate the signals of distress beacons operating on 406 Megahertz (MHz). The position of the distress and other related information is forwarded by the responsible COPAS-SARSAT Mission Control Centre (MCC) to the appropriate national SAR authorities. Its objective is to support all organisations in the world with responsibility for Search and Rescue (SAR) operations, whether at sea, in the air, or on land.
