Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 20, Aircraft and space vehicles,
Subcommittee SC 14, Space systems and operations.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 14619:2003), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— description of new terms and definitions;
— adjustment of organizational roles and responsibilities;
— definition and clarification of the content of documents;
— addition of information on ensuring the long-term sustainability of the space environment.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

Introduction
This document establishes the requirements for conducting space experiments (SEs).
Space systems are used for solving various practical problems of humanity. The possibilities for
expanding the use of these systems are far from being exhausted. The space environment provides ideal
conditions for certain scientific studies, which are difficult or impossible to carry out in a terrestrial
environment.
It often happens that an experiment is conducted on board a space system that is available and
operational (i.e. the experiment becomes part of the operations of the space system itself). The SE is
carried out using both hardware and software subsystems. This poses a problem of accomplishing two
interrelated objectives:
— to ensure successful execution and performance of the experiment;
— to avoid interfering with an operational space system so as not to impair its functioning.
One method of solving this problem is to standardize the procedure for integrating (introducing) SEs
into the operational processes of the space system. This document specifies the procedures for an
experiment preparation on the ground and processing of the data, obtained when conducting SEs with
the use of a space system that is already operational.
