What is Flight Software (FSW)?
Flight-software refers to the specialized software that runs onboard spacecrafts and controls their operation throughout all mission phases, from launch to landing or deployment. It plays a critical role in managing spacecraft functions such as navigation, communication, data collection, and instrument control. It is a key component of the overall spacecraft system and is designed to ensure the proper functioning and coordination of all onboard systems.
Despite its importance, finding useful information on how to develop these systems—or even how to begin the development process—can be difficult. This site is here to help you on that journey!
