Flight controllers in the International Space Station Mission Control at the Johnson Space Center monitor systems aboard the orbiting laboratory during a number of dynamic events for Expedition 44. Screens in the front of the room show the camera views from two spacewalking Russian cosmonauts while NASA astronaut Kjell Lindgren is seen harvesting lettuce from the Veggie experiment that would become the first food grown in space to be eaten.
