However, appreciation quickly grew after the first work accomplished by the BSSC that defined the <a href="/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle" title="Software release life cycle">software life cycle</a> and its phases. This work established a common <a href="/wiki/Terminology" title="Terminology">terminology</a> that facilitated communication and experience exchange between <a href="/wiki/Working_group" title="Working group">work groups</a>. The next accomplishment of the BSSC were the documents known as “pink documents” (due to the color of the papers used for printing), that consisted of a set of documents each covering a specific phase of the software life cycle. Through the five years following the creation of the BSCC, and with the growing adoption of the pink documents, opposition to standardization gradually decreased.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> By the end of 1982, a full set of pink documents defining the complete software life cycle was available, and released as a single volume in 1984, known as the ESA Software Engineering Standards ESA BSSC (84)1, Issue 1. Following further review and update, the ESA BSSC (84)1 was published as part of the ESA “Procedures, Specifications and Standards” (PSS) documents, as a fully mature standard. First released in January 1987 as “PSS-05-0, Issue 1”, then updated and released in February 1991 as “PSS-05-0, Issue 2”.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In total, the ESA worked on the standardization of ten branches:<sup id="cite_ref-pss-docs_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-pss-docs-4"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <ol><li>PSS-01-0 Product Assurance and Safety</li> <li>PSS-02-0 Electrical Power and EMC</li> <li>PSS-03-0 Mechanical Engineering and Human Factors</li> <li>PSS-04-0 Space Data Communications</li> <li>PSS-05-0 Software Engineering</li> <li>PSS-06-0 Management and Project Control</li> <li>PSS-07-0 Operations and EGSE</li> <li>PSS-08-0 Natural and Induced Environment</li> <li>PSS-09-0 Control Systems</li> <li>PSS-10-0 Ground Communications and Computer Networking</li></ol> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Foundation">Foundation</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=European_Cooperation_for_Space_Standardization&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Foundation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>While the ESA developed the PSS system for its projects, the different <a href="/wiki/List_of_government_space_agencies" title="List of government space agencies">space agencies</a> in Europe relied on a multiplicity of standards.

Several efforts were subsequently initiated to achieve this objective. In the autumn of 1993, a number of national space agencies (mentioned below), alongside several European industrial organizations represented by Eurospace, signed the European Cooperation for Space Standardization (ECSS) terms of reference.<sup id="cite_ref-esa-bulletin-81_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-esa-bulletin-81-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> A work group was established to define the Standardization Policy, approved by the Steering Board under the title ECSS-P-00 by late 1993.
