While there have been meetings on assurance of autonomy in other application areas, this meeting seeks to develop a roadmap for assurance of autonomy specifically for robotic space missions. Key characteristics that distinguish this application area include: the lack of detailed prior knowledge of the environments in which those missions are to operate; the challenges of mimicking deep space operating conditions for purposes of testing; the need to be highly assured of failsafe operation; limited and delayed (due to speed of light over solar system distances) communication; and the one/few-of-a-kind, must-work-the-first-time nature of most space missions.
