Looks like the touchscreens could have come directly from the Tesla Model 3

Those astronauts are just along for the ride. Don't need those touchscreens at all.

Those screens any better than consumer touchscreens?

When shite hits the fan I'd want some physical buttons to press instead of my finger accidentally hitting the wrong selection on the touchscreen.

Looks like there are buttons below the screens which may be the more critical operations.

Its so easy to screw up with a touch screen but the computers are handling everything. Those guys could get in there and just sit with their eyes closed

Ya I know, but I imagine there's a manual way to do things if things go south.

Not really. Ran a DCS system for a 600 mw power plant that had 6 screens.

Reminds me of the Mission Space ride at Walt Disney World. Also reminds me of The Right Stuff. "Where are the controls?"

10 years ago this board confidently predicted that Tesla would fold within 2 years. “Nobody wants an electric car.”
