They still have those control desks in modern missions?
For NASA, similar desk layout, but it does look more modernized.

On the one hand: kind of sad since this isn't too far removed from some workplaces. The hardware and furniture could be sourced from any number of places.
On the other: hot damn. We can get the same kit NASA uses at home. Welcome to the future.
That's what i meant, all software and plugable devices now. Those desks were prohibitively expensive.
