The current state of satellite operation automation at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), MD, is described, discussing the short term future and presenting a vision of how automation should be used in future systems. The automation practices currently applied in several current programs are surveyed. The rapidly evolving level of spacecraft autonomy is considered, reviewing how future onboard capabilities will affect ground based automation efforts. The optimum role of automation is discussed and automation principles are presented that can be used to identify favorable opportunities for simplifying and reducing the operating cost of spaceborne science missions.
