Required question 1 (exact ID: question-1) Is the task concrete, Earth-first, evidence-bearing, reversible, and bounded by explicit veto conditions?
Required question 2 (exact ID: question-2) Do every candidate tier, rationale, and next action remain specific to this task without becoming an entity ranking?
Required question 3 (exact ID: question-3) Would the proposed evidence artifact let an independent person falsify or stop the work?
Explicit exclusions
Task matches do not authorize outreach, registration, application, funding, procurement, or commitment.
A candidate tier is not an organization, event, or opportunity quality score.
Frozen-evidence decision window: 90 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.
What can robotic observation and precursor missions establish before any human commitment to a destination?
Summary
Prioritize astronomy, probes, braking, communications, contamination control, and conservative interpretation of destination evidence.

What Would Change
New destination observations, a verified precursor architecture, changed planetary-protection duties, or credible indigenous life evidence would change the task.
The profile directly supports robotic deep-space operations, navigation, communications, autonomy, and fault management; no NASA relationship, access, or mission role exists.
Bounded Next Action
Use published mission records to derive bounded precursor requirements and failure cases.
The profile supports SETI, exoplanet, and interstellar precursor relevance, but current participation, mission maturity, independence, and access remain unverified.
Bounded Next Action
Review public technical outputs for target and precursor assumptions without treating the initiative as feasibility validation.
The open citizen-science route provides low-barrier practice in transit data, reproducibility, uncertainty, and target-characterization literacy without establishing destination habitability or NASA affiliation.
Required Artifact
A locally reproducible sample analysis with observation, model, inference, uncertainty, software provenance, data quality, and external-account boundaries kept explicit.

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.
Add another --decision for each independent reviewer.
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.
Every primary record must receive the required number of valid, current-fingerprint approvals; every complementary scope group and required domain must be covered; any unresolved revise, contest, or reject disposition blocks publication.
Named medical, reproductive, nuclear, radiation, cybersecurity, governance, and dual-use conclusions require two distinct qualified independent humans covering complementary domain-method and rights/public-interest scopes.
Reviewer identity, qualification, independence, conflicts, and compensation must be assessed by accountable human governance; local validation can only report structural validity.
Approve, revise, contest, reject, and recuse remain visible. A negative finding cannot be hidden by an aggregate approval percentage.
Revision creates a new record and packet fingerprint. Prior approvals do not carry forward automatically.
AI may assist with clerical comparison but cannot count as an independent reviewer, identity attestor, appeal authority, or second person.

Assumptions and limits
The exact packet, record, source, policy, release, and source-commit fingerprints bound this prepared page; human review has not started.
Downloading, local structural validation, or completing notes does not appoint or qualify a reviewer, establish independence, accept a decision, authorize publication, or create a relationship.
What would change this page?
Staffed governance, appointed qualified reviewers, completed record-level decisions, published conflicts, minority findings, corrections, or changed review policy would change this page.
