Clarify space, satellite and ground system requirements
Provide a transparent space standards development environment open to participation by all.
Encourage the development and use of CORBA based space, satellite and ground system domain software components, thereby growing the object technology market.
Encourage the use of UML to describe the architectures of their distributed systems in a standard way.
Encourage continued space industry member participation leverage existing OMG specifications.

To satisfy these goals the Space Task Force will :

Use the Object Management Group (OMG) technology adoption process to standardize interfaces for software components, services and frameworks in space applications.
Create a Space Architecture and Roadmap for the Space Industry world-wide.
Leverage existing OMG specifications.
Involve all interested members of the OMG in the OMG Space Domain Task Force.
Issue RFIs, RFPs and RFCs for CORBA-based technology relevant to space.
Identify relevant standards, architectures, research and technologies in space applications.
Assist and advise the Liaison Sub-Committee regarding its relationship with related Standards Organizations and Consortia.
