TerraSAR-X is an advanced synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite for scientific and commercial applications realized in a public-private partnership between DLR and EADS Astrium, Germany. The launch was on June 15, 2007 into a sun-synchronous dawn-dusk orbit at roughly 514 km altitude. The main payload is a new generation of SAR instrument. TerraSAR-X had successfully completed its commissioning phase by the end of 2007 and it will be operated by the DLR for a period of at least 5 years. This paper describes the support provided by the mission operations team. The focus will be on the on-call support outside normal working hours.
