Abstract

Nowadays onboard software plays one of the key roles in the success of space missions. The flight control program is a classic example of mission critical software. The spacecraft’s control logic is implemented by onboard software both for normal operations and abnormal situations. Today software provides spacecraft with system integration, and fault tolerance features. Unfortunately, in contrast to aviation, the Russian space industry did not have standards which could help to distribute the best practices, languages, and methods among organizations involved in rocket and spacecraft development. The paper argues the necessity for standardization, and presents the proposed list and content of these standards.
