The Formation Autonomy Spacecraft with Thrust, Relnav, Attitude, and Crosslink (FASTRAC) satellites were launched on November 19, 2010 from Kodiak, AK as part of the Space Test Program STP-S26 launch aboard a Minotaur IV rocket. Throughout the first six months of operations the satellites underwent an extensive check out period ensuring all subsystems were working nominally. During the first year of operations, enough data has been gathered to show that all of the mission objectives have satisfied the minimum success criteria. The data collected during the first six months of operation are presented and analyzed showing the status of the spacecraft health and the primary GPS experiment.
