The Payload Operations Center (POC) is the science command post for the International Space Station (ISS). Located at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, it is the focal point for American and international science activities aboard the ISS. The POC's unique capabilities allow science experts and researchers around the world to perform cutting-edge science in the unique microgravity environment of space. The POC is staffed around the clock by shifts of payload flight controllers. At any given time, 8 to 10 flight controllers are on consoles operating, plarning for, and controlling various systems and payloads. This photograph shows the Payload Communications Manager (PAYCOM) at a work station. The PAYCOM coordinates payload-related voice communications between the POC and the ISS crew. The PAYCOM is the voice of the POC.

Michael Kinnan (left), with International Space Station (ISS) Launch Site Integration Office, and Todd McIntyre, with ISS International Elements, review paperwork for the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module (MPLM) in the Space Station Processing Facility at KSC. The Italian-built module, named Leonardo, is one of three to be provided by Alenia Aerospazio, and will be operated by NASA and supported by ASI, the Italian space agency. In the background, technicians from The Boeing Company and Alenia Aerospazio are preparing the first MPLM for flight. The MPLMs will be carried in the payload bay of a Shuttle orbiter, and will provide storage and additional work space for up to two astronauts when docked to the ISS. Leonardo is scheduled to be launched on STS-100 in December 1999. The second MPLM, named Raffaello, is scheduled to be handed over in April 1999. A third module, to be named Donatello, is due to be delivered in October 2000 for launch in January 2001
