The mission of a space station that is known as the big platform of near-earth space is to enable long-term flight to explore space. As the ever-increasing number of on-orbit missions, it is a challenge to manage an effective on-orbit project. With the deep integration of artificial intelligence and space technology, the on-orbit operation of a space station has gradually developed to be intelligent. Therefore, the intelligent operation of spacecraft has become an inevitable trend. This paper focuses on the development of on-orbit intellectualization at the International Space Station (ISS) and the application of artificial intelligence technology in its health management, mission planning and scheduling, mission operation and human-computer interaction. It is hoped that the research will contribute to the intelligent on-orbit operation in China.

“…Likewise, plan execution technology has been tested onboard the ISS as a way to automate payload operations. AMO EXPRESS [8] describes a demonstration of how an experiment facility can be autonomously operated, with simple integrated fault detection and response capabilities. The NASA Platform for Autonomous Systems (NPAS), is a software platform used to make systems operate autonomously using a model-based systems engineering (MBSE) approach [9].…”

Future human space missions for exploring beyond low Earth orbit are in the conceptual design stage. One such mission describes a habitat in cis-lunar orbit that is visited by crew periodically, others describe missions to Mars. These missions have one important thing in common: the need for autonomy on the spacecraft. This need stems from the latency and bandwidth constraints on communications between the vehicle and ground control. A variable amount of autonomy may be necessary whether the spacecraft has crew on board or not.Spacecraft are complex systems that are engineered as a collection of subsystems. These subsystems work together to control the overall state of the spacecraft. As such, solutions that increase the autonomy of the spacecraft (called autonomous functions) should respect both the independence and interconnectedness of the spacecraft subsystems. This distributed and hierarchical approach to system monitoring and control is a key idea in the Modular Autonomous Systems Technology (MAST) framework.The MAST framework enables a component-based architecture that provides interfaces and structure to developing autonomous technologies.The framework enforces a distributed, hierarchical architecture for autonomous control systems across subsystems, systems, elements, and vehicles. An example autonomous system was implemented in this framework and tested using realistic spacecraft software and hardware simulations. This paper will discuss the framework, tests conducted, results, and future work.

“…That system, called WebPD, was integrated with spacecraft systems to provide information about the spacecraft's state. The system then displayed serial procedures along with important relevant state information related to each step in the procedure (Stetson et al 2015;Frank et al 2013). A similar system, called the Procedure Integrated Development Environment (PRIDE), was implemented to assist in the development of procedures.…”

Pilots have benefited from ever-increasing and evolving automation techniques for many decades. This automation has allowed pilots to handle increasingly complex aircraft with greater safety, precision, and reduced workload. Unfortunately, it can also lead to misunderstandings and loss of situational awareness. In the face of malfunctions or unexpected events, pilots sometimes have an unclear picture of the situation and what to do next or must find and follow written procedures that do not take into account all the details of the particular situation. Pilots may also incorrectly assume the mode or state of an automated system and fail to perform certain necessary actions that they assumed the automated system would handle. To help alleviate these issues, we introduce the Cockpit Hierarchical Activity Planning and Execution CHAP-E system. CHAP-E provides pilots with intuitive graphical guidance on what actions need to be performed and when they need to be performed based on the aircraft and automation state, and projection of this state into the future. This assists pilots in both nominal and off-nominal flight situations.
