System and user requirements for ground based control of spaceborne experiments are reviewed, and a telescience concept is described. The communication network is based on two separate high data rate links between data relay satellites (DRS) and users in low Earth orbit. It allows a two way link between ground users and DRS without ground retransmission. The onboard data management system is essentially the same as for standard payload control, but with additional functions such as accepting time tagged commands and command validation without user control on the ground. The impact of the telescience concept on the Columbus User Operations Center and Payload Operations Control Center is assessed. A concept validation phase is outlined.
