Human spaceflight operations incorporates most of the aspects of satellite operations, but require some conceptual modifications; in addition, some new domains must be added to accommodate humans in space. This chapter briefly describes the required modifications to the classical subsystems presented earlier and introduces the additional subsystems Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS), Visiting Vehicles, and extravehicular activities (EVA). Aspects specifically related to the crew, such as safety, health care, and communications are discussed, as well as the structure of the ISS flight control teams and their operational approach.
