- "Johnson works in the Mission Control Center at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston. His role as an Extravehicular Activity Officer involves preparing and supporting the astronauts conducting the spacewalks.
- "Johnson's duties at the Space Center don't stop there, however. Some days, his main job is to work on training materials used to teach crew members how to do a repair of the thermal protective system. Other days, he trains crews at the Space Center's neutral buoyancy laboratory. Here, the crew members put on spacesuits and get into a large swimming pool where they practice doing their spacewalks. A third job takes Johnson to Mission Control, where he watches and monitors the crew on board the International Space Station."

- "Anderson, a native of Nebraska, received a masters degree in aerospace engineering from Iowa State in 1983. That same year, he began his career with NASA, signing onto the Mission Planning and Analysis Division at the Johnson Space Center. His duties included calculating trajectory designs, which were used in early space shuttle and space station missions."
- "He went on to become flight design manager of the Mission Operations Directorate, where he led the trajectory design team for the Galileo mission in 1988. Several missions followed before he was promoted to chief of the flight design branch in 1993."
- "In 1998, he was selected by NASA for astronaut training. He continues to work as part of the ground crew until he is assigned to be part of a flight team."
