Mission Control Center (MCC)

A Mission Control Center (MCC) is a central facility that oversees and manages space missions, such as satellites, spacecraft, or lunar and planetary exploration. It provides real-time monitoring of spacecraft systems, coordinates communication between mission teams and space assets, and makes critical decisions to ensure mission success and safety. The MCC is staffed with engineers and scientists who analyze data, troubleshoot issues, and execute commands to keep the mission on track. Essentially, it acts as the nerve center, maintaining continuous oversight and control of space operations from Earth.
