Now in the planning stage by the Air Force Systems Command Space Division, the Consolidated Space Operations Center (CSOC) will be secure, dedicated space control center that will provide the Air Force enhanced command and control capability in the late 1980's and 1990's. Designated for construction in Colorado Springs, Colorado, for an initial operational capability date of mid-1986, the CSOC will include a Satellite Operations Center (SOC) and a Shuttle Operations and Planning Center (SOPC). The SOC, an integral part of the Air Force Satellite Control Facility (AFSCF) network that is functionally identical to the Satellite Test Center (STC) in Sunnyvale, California, will perform its command and control functions with a modernized data system now under development at the STC and will support its assigned AFSCF workload. Also, in the event of a catastrophic failure to SOC will provide austere backup support for workloads normally assigned to the STC, and vice versa. Additional land is being acquired to accomodate the construction of facilities for major new space programs as required.
