00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:18,470
space probes like Voyager have visited

2
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:20,850
many of our nearby planets sending back

3
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:24,090
stunning pictures as robots they accept

4
00:00:30,529 --> 00:00:27,210
commands and perform tasks remotely for

5
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:30,539
millions of miles from Earth today NASA

6
00:00:36,020 --> 00:00:33,290
is developing a new generation of robots

7
00:00:38,090 --> 00:00:36,030
robotics will play a major role in the

8
00:00:40,810 --> 00:00:38,100
construction and maintenance of NASA's

9
00:00:45,650 --> 00:00:40,820
manned space station dude rebuilt in

10
00:00:48,410 --> 00:00:45,660
1990s a Jet Propulsion Laboratory in

11
00:00:51,020 --> 00:00:48,420
Pasadena California simulations are

12
00:00:53,420 --> 00:00:51,030
underway with a robotic gripper capable

13
00:00:56,569 --> 00:00:53,430
of transmitting the sense of feel back

14
00:00:58,849 --> 00:00:56,579
to it's User other NASA centers are also

15
00:01:01,580 --> 00:00:58,859
involved in robotics research for the

16
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:01,590
space station at Ames in Mountain View

17
00:01:06,620 --> 00:01:04,650
California a unique system for operating

18
00:01:10,070 --> 00:01:06,630
robots is being explored using

19
00:01:13,700 --> 00:01:10,080
especially sensing some lipton glove as

20
00:01:18,770 --> 00:01:13,710
I make a fist gesture the pictures on

21
00:01:20,870 --> 00:01:18,780
the end effector clothes robotics

22
00:01:23,539 --> 00:01:20,880
research at NASA's Johnson Space Center

23
00:01:26,749 --> 00:01:23,549
in Houston is being done on this robotic

24
00:01:28,910 --> 00:01:26,759
retriever the free-flying helper will be

25
00:01:31,010 --> 00:01:28,920
used to retrieve loose tools and even

26
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:31,020
astronauts who get separated from the

27
00:01:40,340 --> 00:01:38,270
taking the lead in robotics research is

28
00:01:43,100 --> 00:01:40,350
Goddard Space Flight Center Greenbelt

29
00:01:45,649 --> 00:01:43,110
Maryland they have evaluated most

30
00:01:48,529 --> 00:01:45,659
present day technology used in robotics

31
00:01:50,810 --> 00:01:48,539
and are designing a specialized robot

32
00:01:54,710 --> 00:01:50,820
called the flight teller robotic

33
00:01:57,980 --> 00:01:54,720
servicer or fts researchers plan to

34
00:02:03,319 --> 00:01:57,990
evaluate its design using these arms in

35
00:02:06,410 --> 00:02:03,329
a series of Space Station passes robots

36
00:02:09,020 --> 00:02:06,420
will play a key role in space endeavors
