Abstract
The Mission Control Center (MCC) at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) endeavors to create a cohesive mission operations system that is configurable for any small satellite mission designed and built at Georgia Tech. The MCC is designed to provide an industry-quality mission control and the accompanying software to centralize the efforts required to operate a satellite, including receiving telemetry, sending commands, and processing telemetry to create understandable data outputs. The MCC will enter into service beginning with the upcoming launch of CubeSat GT-1. The process of preparation for operations primarily includes developing the software system to operate from the beginning of the satellite pass through data archival and developing an understanding of the key telemetry of the mission to sufficiently represent the statuses of mission critical components on the satellite in display visuals.
