Space Robot Scares Astronaut
By admin. Filed in Robot News, Science |
Canadian robot Dextre is set to blast off into space this coming Tuesday. The giant robot is being shipped in pieces and will help do work aboard the space station.
An article from the Boston Globe quotes astronaut Michael Foreman:
“I feel kind of like dad on Christmas Eve, you know, opening up this present and trying to put it together for the son or daughter and going, Whoa, what have I gotten myself into here with this ‘some assembly required’ part of the space station,” Foreman said.
