Teledyne Brown Marks Milestone For Space Station Operations Support

Teledyne Brown Engineering, Inc. (TBE) announced today that since June 2001 the company has provided 50,000 hours of science operations support for the International Space Station (ISS) from Marshall Space Flight Center’s Payload Operations Center in Huntsville, Ala.

Highly-skilled Teledyne Brown personnel man the payload consoles 24 hours a day with three shifts of flight controllers. The Payload Operations Center links researchers from around the world with their experiments and astronauts aboard the ISS.
