Astronauts lead an exciting life. Their jobs are full of adventure. However, there are many people behind the scenes that make an astronaut's job easier.

The people at mission control are part of this support staff. They are the people who plan and organize the space missions.

There are flight controllers and ground teams. The ground-team gathers information from the spacecraft and launch pad. The flight controllers study the information and make decisions on the best way to proceed. They work together as a team to do the best job possible.
