Our recent trip to NASA's Mission Control Center to find out how NASA steers the ISS around space junk yielded more than an awesome interview—it also gave me the opportunity to snap some excellent pictures of the rest of the goings-on in the flight control room. We weren't allowed down on the floor to take close-up pictures, but rest assured, that's definitely on my list. However, until I get that organized and cleared, here are some images of the flight controllers who keep manned space flight running!
