		Mission Control's focal points are the two Flight Control rooms, where flight controllers get information from console computer displays or from projected displays that fill the wall at the front of the room.
		During missions in which a Spacelab module is carried in the orbiter's payload bay, additional flight control positions are required.
		It is a command post, communications center and data relay station for principal investigators, the mission flight director at the Mission Control Center in Houston and the Spacelab or shuttle crew.

	Spacecraft
		The main scientific goal of the mission is to measure the mass, momentum and energy of the solar wind that somehow is transferred into the space environment around the Earth.
		Although much has been learned from previous space missions about the general nature of this huge transfer, it is necessary to gather a great deal of detailed information from several strategic regions of space around the Earth before scientists understand the ways in which the planet's atmosphere responds to changes in the solar wind.
		Later in the mission, the Wind spacecraft will be inserted into a special halo orbit in the solar wind upstream from the Earth, at the unique distance which allows Wind to always remain between the Earth and the Sun (about 930,000 to 1,050,000 miles, or 1,500,000 to 1,690,000 kilometers, from the Earth).

	Cassini-Huygens: Operations-First Things First
		Before discussing the flight operations of the mission, an important element in the preparation of the spacecraft is the development phase.
		Their jobs were to replicate telemetry and command with the spacecraft through communication with the scientists, so that proper commands could be administered throughout Cassini's operation.
		To accurately monitor and control the spacecraft while it remains in operation, scientists designed and assembled Cassini while simultaneously developing what is known as its ground system.

		However, beginning with shuttle mission STS-70 in July, 1995, control was passed to the new, state of the art Mission Control Center.
		There are two Payload Operations Control Centers (POCCs), which are used to monitor and control the payload or experiments conducted in the shuttle’s cargo bay.
		Note: During missions on which a Spacelab module is carried in the orbiter's payload bay, an additional flight control position is Command and Data Management Systems officer (CDMS), responsible for data processing systems involving Spacelab's two major computers.

		Mission Control is the heart of Flight Operations for unmanned, robotic spacecraft missions such as Galileo, Voyager, and Cassini-Huygens.
		All of the activities for tracking Cassini are controlled from within the Space Flight Operations Facility at JPL.
		This person is the mission controller, also called the "Ace." Depending on what activities are scheduled for a particular day, there may be dozens of others involved with the Ace by voice-net, telephone, or e-mail while they check system status, or send commands "up" to the distant spacecraft.

		The focal point is the Flight Control Room, or FCR (pronounced "Ficker"), where flight controllers get information from computer workstations or from projected displays that fill the wall at the front of the room.

	Apollo Guidance Computer and Other Computer History
		The Apollo guidance, control and navigation system was designed by Draper Laboratory (nee the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory) during the mid to late '60's, but was the legacy of a series of earlier studies of Mars photographic reconnaissance missions which had been sponsored by the Air Force Ballistic Missile Division.
		It is particularly well suited for use as a control element in applications which require operation in stressed environments, which require a computer of high reliability, and which call for equipment of small size, low weight, and low power consumption.
		The key to the mission is the use of lunar rendezvous, which greatly reduces the size of the booster needed at the earth.
