My name is Tim Kennedy and I work in the Mission Operations Directorate at the NASA Johnson Space Center. During the past ten days, I have been the Flight Director for the K10 flight control team.
While K10 drives in the bright sunshine at Black Point Lava Flow, the flight control team sits in a darkened room that is illuminated by rows of monitors. Known by their call signs - DATA, ROC, DRIVER and SPOC - they are the ones who keep K10 on track to execute the daily missions.
