Ground Station Autonomy Stack

Ground Station Autonomy Stack is a space software layer that lets spacecraft or ground tools make bounded decisions when direct human control is delayed for antenna, scheduling, and downlink operations. It uses rules, state machines, onboard checks, and fail-safe limits so teams can handle latency without losing accountability while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.

“The mission team used Ground Station Autonomy Stack when the antenna handoff began, so the team could handle latency without losing accountability before the next mission decision point.”
