This book covers the topic of satellite control centers. We'll take a look at the historical development of satellite control centers, from the earliest efforts of the iconic Apollo Mission Control at Houston. Mention a spacecraft control center, and every one remembers the one from the movie Apollo-13.

The primary focus will be NASA efforts, but similar facilities are in use by other spacefaring nations. This book is intended as an technical introduction to the subject. We'll look at the evolution of satellite control centers to understand how we got to where we are, and we'll look at evolving technology to see where we can go.
