Virtual Tour of the Hubble Control Center: Mission Operations Room

The video tutorial provides an overview of the command center where flight engineers manage Hubble's operations. It covers daily tasks such as sending commands, retrieving data, and ensuring data integrity. The engineers monitor thousands of data points to ensure Hubble's safety and follow contingency plans if issues arise. Routine activities include updating orbit information and clearing memory. The center was once staffed 24/7 but is now automated, with staff present only during weekdays. Engineers receive notifications for issues and can access spacecraft data remotely. The room features real-time data displays and models of the spacecraft for reference.
