Technology for Autonomous Operational Survivability (TAOS) (also known as Space Test Experiment Platform 0 (STEP 0) and USA101) was a satellite developed by the US Air Force's Phillips Laboratory (now part of the Air Force Research Laboratory Space Vehicles Directorate) to test technology for autonomous operation of spacecraft.[1][2]
The TAOS mission was operated by heritage Space Test and Development Wing and the 1st Space Operations Squadron.[3]
