Earth-Station 1 is the only earth-based branch of the OCESS other than Mission Control. It was created during Mission Daedalus 2010, where it was used to assist Mission Control in diagnostic matters. It replaced the previous tradition among Flight Directors of calling experts when Mission Control was out of its depth in a situation; this consisted of telephoning the Simulators who would usually lend assistance. In order to replace this it is run by whichever simulators are on-duty.

Earth-Station 1 also served as Mission Control during the short intervals while Mission Control was tranferring from the Spacesim Office to night-time Mission Control at 440 Albert

Procedures

Location

During Daedalus 2010, while Mission Control was at the Sim Office at Lisgar, Mir acted as Earth Station 1, and Admiral Magwood's laptop operated as Earth Station 1b.

When Mission Control transferred from Lisgar to 440 Albert for Night Shifts, Mir became the official Mission Control AUXCOM and Admiral Magwood's laptop became Earth Station 1.
