station crew

Staff on duty

Station crew refers to the personnel assigned to a particular station—most commonly a space station, where it denotes the astronauts and cosmonauts living and working aboard: The station crew conducted repairs during a six-hour spacewalk.

The term also applies to staff at fire stations, research stations, or broadcast stations, designating whoever is currently on duty at that location.
