Col-CC History
Columbus Operations Columbus Control Centre
Col-CC started operations of the Columbus module
in February 2008 and performs the following tasks:
• Controls Columbus around the clock: 24 hours per day, 7 days per week
• Performs communications to the on-board crew for activities performed in the Columbus module
• Controls stowage in Columbus• Coordinates operations with Mission
Control Centre Houston and Huntsville• Plans all activities performed in
Columbus• Performs payload coordination with
USOCs (User Support and Operations Centres) distributed throughout Europe
• Col-CC is supported by engineering teams at Col-CC, Bremen and Turino and by ground system operations
Col-CC History
Columbus Operations Columbus Control Centre
After successful mating and leak check
Col-CC • supported commanding of Columbus
into Berthed Survival Mode • performed Columbus final activation• provided support to the on-board crew
for Columbus and rack outfitting • started commissioning of system and
payloads• supported activation of external
payloads EuTEF and SOLAR
STS 122 1EFebruary 2008
Col-CC History
Columbus Operations Columbus Control Centre
Col-CC • controls the Columbus on-board systems to provide a safe and
comfortable environment for the crew and to provide necessary support for the ESA and NASA payload facilities
• This is achieved by monitoring and configuring, by remote command, the following subsystems: – Power System– Environmental Control and Life Support System
• Air conditioning (oxygen)• Temperature control for cabin• Humidity regulation• Shell heaters
– Thermal System• Water loop, water pump to cool equipment and racks
– Data Management System– System to Payload interfaces
• Col-CC performs preventive system maintenance• Supports repair and replacement of system components

Col-CC performs Columbus system reconfiguration to support docking / undocking of visiting vehicles
• ATV docking 3 Apr 08, undocking 5 Sep 08
• STS 122-12X except 125• Activation of the Japanese modules • Soyuz docking• Progress docking• HTV

• Upgrade of Columbus on-board software to the next revisions (Cycle 11 in 2008, Cycle 12 in Oct 2009) in close cooperation with the crew, engineering teams, and the other MCC
• Supported repair of ESA payloads in Columbus • Supported ESA and NASA payload operations in Columbus
and performed payload monitoring

One year of operations typically results in
• 36500 commands to Columbus
• 2.2 million lines of code
• 213 CHITs
• 41 integrated anomalies• 420 Columbus anomalies
• Col-CC Stand-alone Simulations: 25
• European Simulations: 70
• Simulations with NASA: 50
