Enter Space Grade Linux (SGL) — an initiative under the ELISA Project aimed at creating a reusable, safety-aware Linux foundation for spaceflight systems. This talk will introduce the goals and current status of SGL, highlighting three foundational focus areas: 1. Kernel Configuration – Defining a shared starting point for space-focused Linux systems, emphasizing predictability, determinism, and traceability. 2. Booting into Linux: Exploring the safety-critical implications of system bring-up and strategies for improving reliability in space-grade deployments. 3. Userspace Strategy – Discussing early-stage decisions around minimal runtime environments, supervision, and what a safe, maintainable userspace might look like. Attendees will get a hands-on overview of what’s already available in the GitHub repository, including a Yocto-based reference implementation and working kernel configuration. More importantly, they’ll learn how to get involved — through technical contributions, architecture discussions, or community collaboration.
