I wonder what the ground control software is written in. I know that for one of the previous ones, they used Tcl and Tk, and the first screenshots they showed with the first image were the X windowing system if I've ever seen it.

I think I peered some SUN workstations, so Solaris would be a fair guess. Pure speculation of course.
