Recovery Verification

Recovery Outcome Verification

Recovery Outcome Verification is a software subsystem stored on radiation-hardened NOR flash that confirms whether Lunar Ark systems have returned to a nominal state following an automated recovery. Drawing 0.5 W with a 500,000-hour mean time between failures over a 100-year operational lifetime, the subsystem executes three verification methods per plan, combining sensor telemetry with behavioral analysis before writing an audit trail to the L1-DVT verification log. Because extended lunar mission profiles require sustained verification confidence across decades of autonomous operation, the system employs machine-learning-augmented verification to identify incomplete recoveries and automatically escalate unresolved faults.

Recovery outcome verification confirming the system returned to nominal state after recovery, with escalation if recovery incomplete.
