The register

Not yet read

Missions and systems said somewhere to have run AI in space, for which the register has not read a source that would carry a record. They are listed so that the gaps can be seen. None is judged.

• Astrobee free-flying robots on the International Space StationNot opened. From the first survey's own list. Robots that can fly by themselves inside the station.
• JAXA's Int-Ball camera drone on the International Space StationNot opened. From the first survey's own list.
• AutoNav self-driving on the Mars rovers Curiosity and PerseveranceRead in part. From a survey paper's table of missions (arXiv 2512.22399). JPL's release of July 2021 was read in part. It describes what Perseverance will do; a later report of what it did is needed.
• Terrain-relative navigation at Perseverance's landingRead in part. From a survey paper's table of missions (arXiv 2512.22399). JPL's page was read in part on 3 October 2026. It describes matching images to a map and, in the part read, does not report the landing.
• Autonomy on China's Yutu-2 lunar roverNot opened. From a survey paper's table of missions (arXiv 2512.22399).
• Autonomy on China's Zhurong Mars roverNot opened. From a survey paper's table of missions (arXiv 2512.22399).
• Hazard avoidance at Chandrayaan-3's landingNot opened. From a survey paper's table of missions (arXiv 2512.22399).
• Earlier AI experiments on HPE's Spaceborne Computer-2Not opened. From HPE's own timeline, which lists image analysis in January 2022 and a test to detect damage to astronauts' equipment in May 2022.
• KP Labs' other missions, among them a processor on the International Space StationNot opened. From KP Labs' missions page, which says it is involved in ten.
• The Loris payload on Australia's SpIRIT satelliteNot opened. From a search result on 3 October 2026.
• HYPSO hyperspectral CubeSatsNot opened. From the first survey's own list.
• OroraTech's fire detection on board its satellitesRead in part. From the first survey's own list. The company's release of February 2023 was read in part. It speaks of processing on orbit; the sentences read do not say that an AI model runs on board.
• China's Tiansuan constellationNot opened. From a repository name seen in a search on 3 October 2026.
• China's WonderJourney satelliteNot opened. From the first survey's own list.
• A model run on the Kanyini satellite itselfRead in part. From NASA's article on the Prithvi model. The team's preprint says testing in orbit on Kanyini was not possible at the time. A later run, if there was one, has not been found.
• Google's paper on Project SuncatcherCould not be opened. From Google's post of 1 October 2026. The link answered with a refusal by every route on two days.
• Autonomous navigation on Deep Space 1Not opened. From the Awesome Space Autonomy list. Classical autonomy.
• Onboard autonomy on ESA's Proba-1 and Proba-3Not opened. From the Awesome Space Autonomy list. Classical autonomy.
• Vision-based navigation at Japan's SLIM lunar landingNot opened. From the Awesome Space Autonomy list. Classical autonomy.
• Autonomous navigation on the Hayabusa missionsNot opened. From the Awesome Space Autonomy list. Classical autonomy.
• India's SpaDeX autonomous dockingNot opened. From the Awesome Space Autonomy list. Classical autonomy.
• Autonomous navigation on CAPSTONENot opened. From the Awesome Space Autonomy list. Classical autonomy.
• Autonomy experiments on ASTERIA's extended missionNot opened. From the Awesome Space Autonomy list.
• AI on the Rashid lunar roversNot opened. From search results on 4 October 2026. The first rover flew on the lander that carried MoonNet.
• Planet's other Pelican satellitesNot opened. From Planet's own posts, which say each carries an NVIDIA processor. Only Pelican-4 has a run on record here.
• Sophia Space's software on Kepler's satellitesRead in part. From a news report of April 2026. Reported as a test to come.
• Starcloud-1 analysing radar images for Capella SpaceRead in part. From news reports of December 2025. Reported as a plan.
• Results from SpaceCube SCENIC on the space stationNot opened. From the record for SCENIC, whose sources describe only the plan.

• not opened No source for it has been read.
• read in part A source was read in part, and what was read does not support a record.
• could not be opened A source is known and refused every route tried.
