So the tiny creature quickly grows into a larger, ominous and eventually murderous one, creating what amounts to a claustrophobic war of attrition for the international crew, who -- cut off from contact with mission control-- join the lengthy cinematic ranks of brilliant scientists that occasionally do really dumb things.

But then there are the less obvious, just as key, costs: the years and equipment needed to train the astronauts, building and maintaining the launchpad, paying the people on the ground in mission control, having rescue plans and personnel ready to get the astronauts or space tourists to safety if there's an emergency.
|
|
Not to mention, where police procedurals and hospital dramas are a dime a dozen, there's still plenty of room for a show about space scientists and engineers — and Mission Control presents a good opportunity to tap into the enthusiasm for space travel that's come with NASA's recent missions to Ceres and Pluto.

The first, Portfolio, will give a manager a way of viewing what everyone in an organization is working on in Asana — a "mission control" that provides a single view of what is going on, which can be useful for figuring out more big-picture progress or to oversee a larger project that has multiple streams of work within it.

Drawing on written documentation for clues, Miller and his team pieced together a variety of materials: 16-millimeter and 35-millimeter films that have long been available in some form; a treasure trove of 177 rediscovered 123-millimeter Panavision reels found at the National Archives and Records Administration; and audio recordings from mission control and other technical outposts.

"We caught each other's eye and we knew that we were really honored with this opportunity to inspire so many, and just hearing our voices talk to Mission Control, knowing two female voices had never been on the loops, solving those problems together outside -- it was a really special feeling," Koch said of that first spacewalk, on October 18.
|
|
Although mission control also hinted that it wanted to continue to squeeze as much work from the crew as possible ("we naturally would like to continue to get more science per invested hour as we go along"), the Skylab crew and NASA's ground control resolved their problems without issue and were able to successfully complete the remaining five weeks of the mission.

Fifty years later, floods made more frequent by the changing of the climate have begun to wash away the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, from which Apollo 11 was launched (NASA has been shipping in sand to try to shore up devastated dunes), and hurricanes worsened by the rising of the seas threaten the site of Apollo 11's mission control, the Johnson Space Center in Texas.
