Popis: The increase of automated systems in space missions raises concerns about safety and reliability in operations carried out by satellites due to performance degradation. There have been several studies about the automatic planning process, but many approaches are generated with invalid states. The invalid state can be understood as a prohibited, degraded or risky scenario for the domain. This paper proposes an automated planning process with restrictions that enables automatic planners to not generate plans with invalid states. We implement a validator method for the planner software which proves that plan generation matches the restrictions imposed on the domain. In the experiments, we test an automatic planning process that is specific to the aerospace area, where a knowledge base with invalid states is available in the context of the operation of a satellite. Our proposal to carry out the verification of invalid states in automatic planning, can contribute to plans being generated with higher quality, ensuring that the goal of a plan is only achieved through valid intermediate states. It is also expected that the generated plans will be executed with better performance and will require less computational resources, since the search space is reduced.
