Launch Autonomy Stack

Launch Autonomy Stack is a space software layer that lets spacecraft or ground tools make bounded decisions when direct human control is delayed for launch vehicle and ascent operations. It uses rules, state machines, onboard checks, and fail-safe limits so teams can handle latency without losing accountability while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.

“The mission team used Launch Autonomy Stack when the launch window narrowed, so the team could handle latency without losing accountability before the next mission decision point.”
