We present a baseline approach to Functional Autonomyfor the purpose of conducting excavation and samplingbehaviors in a proposed Europa Lander mission. Aspects ofthe problems of site selection, excavation progress tracking,and fault identification are related; with particular emphasison parameters peculiar to an icy moon environment. Firstpass approaches to addressing these challenges are presentedin isolation, while motivating the current development goal ofproducing a general Functional Autonomy architecture thatallows state estimation, fault diagnosis, isolation, & recovery(FDIR), and adaptive behaviors to be formulated in concert.
