Questions and exclusions

Required questions

1. Required question 1 (exact ID: question-1)
   Does each evidence basis, readiness level, confidence level, rationale, and locator match the frozen sources?
2. Required question 2 (exact ID: question-2)
   Are dependencies, failure modes, precursors, unknowns, Earthside benefits, and the stop gate technically and ethically bounded?
3. Required question 3 (exact ID: question-3)
   Which conclusion should be approved, revised, contested, rejected, or recused from at its current fingerprint?

Explicit exclusions

• A system packet is not a complete spacecraft design, feasibility proof, safety case, or launch authorization.
• Context sources do not become direct support unless the record says so with an exact locator and relation.

Requested controlled scopes: information-science, security-assurance, systems-engineering

Frozen-evidence decision window: 365 days from the packet freeze. Not applicable to this packet family.

Complete primary record set

Every record below has one primary packet owner. Decisions must bind to the exact record and packet fingerprints; a changed lesson body, evidence grade, citation, locator, source snapshot, requirement, policy, release, or commit expires the old packet.

   Index

   Thesis

   Worldship capability must climb a transparent proof ladder from components to integrated analogs to autonomous space habitats; no single analog validates the whole mission.

   Current State

   1. ISS, HERA, CHAPEA, Concordia, Biosphere 2, MELiSSA, Lunar Palace, and habitat laboratories each test different slices.
   2. Digital twins, fault injection, model-based engineering, hardware-in-the-loop, and human-in-the-loop testing are mature methods.
   3. Negative results often provide the most useful evidence about hidden couplings and institutional behavior.

   Unknowns

   1. Short duration, small crew, Earth support, 1 g, and easy rescue limit transfer from present analogs.
   2. There is no shared benchmark for material closure, autonomous recovery, governance stress, knowledge loss, or multi-domain faults.
   3. Organizations can distort analog outcomes when branding, schedules, or funding discourage transparent failure reporting.

   Earth Benefits

   1. Open stress tests improve resilience of buildings, utilities, hospitals, farms, and emergency organizations.
   2. Shared datasets and reference scenarios reduce duplicated effort across research programs.

   Dependencies

   1. mission-architecture
   2. institutions-workforce
   3. cybersecurity

   Gate

   Every claimed capability must identify its environment, duration, scale, intervention, failure history, evidence boundary, and next harder test.

   Failure Modes

   1. Short duration, selected crews, hidden resupply, sponsor pressure, or weak instrumentation makes an analog look more complete than it is.
   2. Subsystem success is extrapolated to an integrated habitat without shared-boundary, common-cause, or recovery evidence.

   Precursors

   1. Cross-site protocols spanning sealed habitats, stations, polar bases, submarines, farms, hospitals, and remote industry.
   2. Open benchmark scenarios with fault injection, mass and energy balances, preregistration, and publication of negative results.

   What Would Change

   Measured exercises that increase harm, fail to transfer, or produce no resilience gain in a defined sector would require narrower scenarios or a different assurance method.

Frozen source snapshots

Source inclusion does not determine the disposition. Reviewers must inspect the cited locator and relation, note inaccessible material, and identify stronger or conflicting evidence.

Offline packet and worksheet

Downloads contain no reviewer contact details. Downloading does not create an account or store a review response in the GShips application. Ordinary provider request or analytics logs may record the download request. Work locally: the public site has no review account, upload endpoint, or decision-submission API.

Do not paste a completed decision, identity documents, private contact data, confidential conflict evidence, medical information, controlled material, or exploit details into a public form. Until a separately authorized private handoff exists, retain the completed worksheet locally.

Packet schema · JSON · Decision-bundle schema · JSON

Validate offline

Use Node.js 22.13.0 or later. Keep the packet, worksheet, completed decision, and all six kit files together in a local directory.

1. Download the six kit files below. Complete a copy of the JSON template offline and preserve its templateFingerprint.
2. Finalize a separate output file.

   node finalize-review-decision.mjs \
     --input DRAFT.json \
     --output COMPLETED.json

   This marks the copy complete and calculates an unkeyed canonical bundle fingerprint. A fingerprint detects changes; it is not a reviewer signature.

3. Validate the packet and completed copy.

   node check-review-decisions.mjs \
     --packet PACKET.json \
     --decision COMPLETED.json

   Add another --decision for each independent reviewer.

4. Interpret the result narrowly. A zero exit proves structural consistency only. Neither command appoints or qualifies a reviewer, establishes independence, accepts a decision, or authorizes publication.
