HSG-M also has taken over operations of the US segment of ISS during Hurricanes Lili and Rita (2002 and 2005, respectively). MSFC in Huntsville took over ISS Backup ...
The functions of an MCC are: [1] to collect, store and sort the data from local user terminals (LUTs) and other MCCs; to provide international and national data exchange within the Cospas-Sarsat system; and; to distribute alert and location data to associated rescue coordination centres (RCCs) or SAR points of contact (SPOCs)
The Columbus Control Centre is also responsible for providing the Ground Segment Services for all European crewed space flight activities. [1] This includes connecting the User Support Operations Centres (USOCs) with the Columbus Control Centre, and routing data for the Automated Transfer Vehicles (ATVs) to the ATV Control Centre located in Toulouse.
