There is increasing emphasis on onboard autonomy in the design of future spacecraft. Image- based, closed-loop tracking and pointing, developed as part of the Autonomous Feature And Star Tracking project at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, has emerged as one of the technology areas essential to realizing autonomous spacecraft. In this paper, we present an overview of our ongoing efforts to develop intelligent, onboard processing technology that will make it possible to realize such spacecraft. A mission scenario, a planetary small-body flyby, is used to illustrate the autonomous tracking/pointing technology addressed in the research.
