The Science Traceability Tool aims to help establish a clear and direct relationship between the science goals and objectives of a robotic spaceflight mission, the measurements needed to achieve these objectives, and the instrumentation required to perform those measurements. This tool is not intended to generate a final, competition-ready Science Traceability Matrix (STM), which typically requires months of iterations, but to help understand how an STM is built and to help visualize how different life detection strategies may be captured in a science traceability format.
