The centralized formation flying topology ... consists of a "mothership" as the primary spacecraft, and "daughter" spacecraft as secondary spacecraft. The "mothership" acts as the control point for the formation. Centralized formation navigation and/or science processing takes place on the "mothership". Crosslinks serve as conduits for the daughter spacecraft to pass information to the "mothership" from the "daughter" spacecraft. Likewise, the "mothership" spacecraft supplies information to the "daughter" via the crosslinks. "Daughter" spacecraft do not communicate with each other via crosslinks. The "mothership" orchestrates mission objectives based on autonomous on-board formation control processing.
