Designing a Human Space Autonomous system for Mars exploration needs a cognitive and semiotic approach lead by risks perception and evaluation. The objective is to solve complex problems and facilitate communication and cooperation at the early stages of the project. The specialized languages, norms and representations tend to separate knowledges in different fields. This process is emphasized by the tendency of discursive thought to reduce the multiple to the unity. Designing an open, self-learning and reliable exploration system1 able to self-adapt in dangerous and unforeseen situations implies a collective networked intelligence led by a safe process that organizes interaction between the actors and the project finality.

Autonomy is the foundation of functionality, intentionality and meaning. Autonomous systems accommodate the unexpected through self-organizing processes, together with some constraints that maintain autonomy. Early versions of autonomy, such as autopoiesis and closure to efficient cause, made autonomous systems dynamically closed to information. This contrasts with recent work on open systems and information dynamics. On our account, autonomy is a matter of degree depending on the relative organization of the system and system environment interactions. A choice between third person openness and first person closure is not required. Tue, 16 Jul 2024 15:03:38 +0200 Tue, 16 Jul 2024 15:03:53 +0200 https://popups.uliege.be/3041-539x/index.php?id=1748
