This Handbook provides reference material pertaining to the design and validation of autonomous spacecraft systems. The goal is to present in one place a compendium of rules, considerations, and approaches to spacecraft autonomy that will be useful to Air Force and Industrial personnel involved in project management, design, implementation, test, and operations of military space systems. The scope of the content ranges from mission level requirements definition to examples of techniques used to implement subsystem level autonomous control. An attempt has been made to summarize and document the spacecraft autonomy approaches that JPL utilized in their planetary spacecraft designs over the past decade, and to reorient these approaches to the extent necessary to make them applicable to defense satellites.
