The Passport is a governed identity and evidence record for orbital hardware, payloads, software, and compute—not a flight-qualification certificate.
Orbital hardware, payloads, and onboard software change owners and configurations. A brochure or a serial number does not prove which effect an onboard agent or ground system was allowed to cause.
Space product, payload, and ground-segment teams that need a reviewable identity and effect-history record for an orbital object or its software.
Hood provides a passport-style HIOP record: who the object is, which effects CRUSHIA permitted, and what Fossil preserved. Hood is not the spacecraft bus vendor or the launch provider.
Onboard or ground-requested effects are treated as bounded authority questions. A ground login is not on-orbit authority. Learning on board does not expand the permitted effect class.
Identity bindings, permit/deny receipts, and observed-outcome records tied to that orbital object or payload. Not telemetry of the physical universe as such.
Research and evaluation direction. Not offered here as a flight-certified unit or a NASA/ESA qualified part.
Not flight-certified, not space-qualified, and not a claim of hardware on orbit. Simulated/not-live except where a written Hood agreement defines a ground evaluation.
