Payload Operations Integration Center

The Payload Operations Integration Center (POIC) is a control hub that manages and monitors scientific experiments and equipment on space missions, such as the International Space Station. It coordinates the planning, communication, and troubleshooting of payload activities, ensuring experiments run smoothly and data is collected accurately. The POIC acts as a bridge between scientists on Earth and the astronauts or hardware in space, facilitating efficient operation and support to maximize the success of research conducted in space environments.
