 # Ground station contact
 
-A contact occurs when the spacecraft is over a specified ground station. You can find available passes on the system and schedule them for use through Azure Orbital Ground Station (AOGS). A contact and ground station pass mean the same thing.

 In order to create a contact, you must have the following pre-requisites:
 
-* Authorized spacecraft object
-* Contact profile with links in accordance with the spacecraft object above
+* An [authorized](register-spacecraft.md) spacecraft object.
+* A [contact profile](contact-profile.md) with links in accordance with the spacecraft object above.
 
-Contacts are created on a per pass and per ground station basis. If you already know the pass timings for your spacecraft and selected ground station, then you can directly proceed to schedule the pass with these times. The service will succeed in creating the contact object if the window is available and fail if it isn't.
