WebWorldWind is a 3D virtual globe API for HTML5 and JavaScript developed by NASA with support of the European Space Agency (ESA) and other partners. In this paper, the results of the first year for the on-going collaboration between ESA and NASA on WebWorldWind development are presented, highlighting concrete examples built with the newly introduced features and putting them in relation to possible research and education use cases. Finally, the next steps and roadmap are briefly introduced.

A goal of future missions will be an increased level of automation to lower costs, shifting the role of spacecraft operators during nominal phases from being a part of the control loop to becoming a supervisor. A supervisor requires a good overview of all related systems. An electronic operation logbook, if properly integrated in the infrastructure, can be a powerful tool to increase the situational awareness and stay on top of things.

This paper summarises the work performed by the European Space Agency (ESA) for studying the introduction of Web 2.0 technologies to support collaboration in operations activities at the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC). The study identified the need of improvement of the collaboration processes between different teams involved in all missionphases, from preparation and launch to routine operations. These were described in a set of user's stories. The user and technical requirements derived from this initial phase were used as basis for a successive survey and trade-off analysis having as objectives the identification of technologies and / or products that could be used as baseline for the implementation of a prototype solution.
