1 00:00:11,110 --> 00:00:09,910 okay so with that i showed the assembly 2 00:00:14,150 --> 00:00:11,120 complete 3 00:00:23,429 --> 00:00:14,160 and we're back on the timeline and 4 00:00:30,310 --> 00:00:26,390 and that is fantastic news thanks stan 5 00:00:35,190 --> 00:00:33,110 and for everybody watching um this is 6 00:00:36,950 --> 00:00:35,200 the first humanoid robot we've had um 7 00:00:38,790 --> 00:00:36,960 aboard the international space station 8 00:00:42,229 --> 00:00:38,800 in space i guess uh 9 00:00:45,029 --> 00:00:42,239 as well first one we've ever had and 10 00:00:47,750 --> 00:00:45,039 it's a robonaut or r2 11 00:00:49,670 --> 00:00:47,760 and it's specifically designed to uh to 12 00:00:51,270 --> 00:00:49,680 have all the same kinds of 13 00:00:52,950 --> 00:00:51,280 interfaces or to be able to operate with 14 00:00:55,189 --> 00:00:52,960 all the interfaces that humans would use 15 00:00:58,069 --> 00:00:55,199 onboard space station and in the near 16 00:01:01,029 --> 00:00:58,079 term we've got lots of 17 00:01:03,029 --> 00:01:01,039 checkout operations to make sure that 18 00:01:05,270 --> 00:01:03,039 everything is functioning and all the 19 00:01:07,670 --> 00:01:05,280 systems are good very sophisticated 20 00:01:10,630 --> 00:01:07,680 fully articulated many many degrees of 21 00:01:13,750 --> 00:01:10,640 freedom and the the fingers the hands 22 00:01:15,510 --> 00:01:13,760 the elbows wrists shoulders waist 23 00:01:16,310 --> 00:01:15,520 head and neck as well 24 00:01:17,670 --> 00:01:16,320 and 25 00:01:20,630 --> 00:01:17,680 allows a lot of different ways to 26 00:01:22,070 --> 00:01:20,640 command at this stage right now and most 27 00:01:24,710 --> 00:01:22,080 of the commanding we do right now is 28 00:01:26,950 --> 00:01:24,720 through automated scripts using us a 29 00:01:28,710 --> 00:01:26,960 dedicated program to do it down the road 30 00:01:31,350 --> 00:01:28,720 we'll be able to command it via virtual 31 00:01:33,429 --> 00:01:31,360 reality and and i suppose down the road 32 00:01:34,630 --> 00:01:33,439 as well there'll be some capability to 33 00:01:35,670 --> 00:01:34,640 do some uh 34 00:01:38,710 --> 00:01:35,680 some 35 00:01:41,270 --> 00:01:38,720 artificial intelligence type 36 00:01:42,630 --> 00:01:41,280 operations with it where it would have 37 00:01:45,429 --> 00:01:42,640 the uh 38 00:01:47,910 --> 00:01:45,439 the computing capacity on board to to 39 00:01:50,870 --> 00:01:47,920 basically operate in a more or less for 40 00:01:53,030 --> 00:01:50,880 a more semi-autonomous mode 41 00:01:54,789 --> 00:01:53,040 the kinds of things we think about using 42 00:01:55,910 --> 00:01:54,799 robonaut 4 is to basically offload the 43 00:01:58,069 --> 00:01:55,920 cruise from doing some of the more 44 00:01:59,510 --> 00:01:58,079 routine tasks on space station we've got 45 00:02:01,109 --> 00:01:59,520 a crew of six up here and most of the 46 00:02:03,830 --> 00:02:01,119 time everybody's really really busy 47 00:02:06,230 --> 00:02:03,840 doing all the science that we do and uh 48 00:02:08,309 --> 00:02:06,240 having a seventh crew member to add to 49 00:02:10,070 --> 00:02:08,319 the complement of six is a wonderful 50 00:02:12,229 --> 00:02:10,080 thing 51 00:02:15,990 --> 00:02:12,239 and ultimately i think also it would be 52 00:02:17,910 --> 00:02:16,000 a fantastic uh tool to have as an 53 00:02:19,510 --> 00:02:17,920 additional eva crew member spacewalk and 54 00:02:20,550 --> 00:02:19,520 crew member outside 55 00:02:22,309 --> 00:02:20,560 and 56 00:02:24,710 --> 00:02:22,319 again we've got a lot of work in the 57 00:02:26,630 --> 00:02:24,720 near term for uh from a technologic you 58 00:02:28,470 --> 00:02:26,640 know from a technology demonstration 59 00:03:52,550 --> 00:02:28,480 standpoint to get there but this is a 60 00:04:02,470 --> 00:03:54,470 and dan we are setting up for the next 61 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:34,710 okay copy that 62 00:04:39,590 --> 00:04:37,189 and then this is huntsville we are ready 63 00:04:41,189 --> 00:04:39,600 for you to proceed to step 12 64 00:04:47,990 --> 00:04:41,199 and once you're ready we'll start with 65 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,510 age 12 is complete ready for 13. 66 00:04:53,520 --> 00:06:08,070 and we copy 67 00:06:19,029 --> 00:06:10,150 okay step 13 68 00:06:19,039 --> 00:06:37,909 and we copy and concur 69 00:06:41,510 --> 00:06:39,510 there is a handshake coming up in 70 00:06:42,790 --> 00:06:41,520 between burbank and robonauts we're 71 00:06:55,670 --> 00:06:42,800 hoping to get it while we're still on 72 00:07:01,270 --> 00:06:58,390 station huntsville on space to ground 73 00:07:04,550 --> 00:07:01,280 one for dan and robonaut 74 00:07:10,309 --> 00:07:04,560 we are a go to proceed with step four 75 00:07:13,430 --> 00:07:12,150 here's four decimal three 76 00:07:15,029 --> 00:07:13,440 and 77 00:07:16,390 --> 00:07:15,039 you're ready as soon as i with four 78 00:07:17,909 --> 00:07:16,400 decimal three 79 00:07:20,469 --> 00:07:17,919 complete and standing by on that you're 80 00:07:22,309 --> 00:07:20,479 ready for four decimal form 81 00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:22,319 that is a firm you are a go to proceed 82 00:07:30,390 --> 00:07:29,510 okay very good the first human humanoid 83 00:07:55,990 --> 00:07:30,400 handshake 84 00:07:59,670 --> 00:07:58,070 so man meets machine aboard the 85 00:08:01,589 --> 00:07:59,680 international space station as 86 00:08:03,029 --> 00:08:01,599 expedition 30 commander dan burbank 87 00:08:17,189 --> 00:08:03,039 reaches out and shakes the hand of 88 00:08:22,150 --> 00:08:20,150 so the record was a firm handshake 89 00:08:24,790 --> 00:08:22,160 very nice nice job on the programming 90 00:08:26,790 --> 00:08:24,800 and uh and all the engineering 91 00:08:34,149 --> 00:08:26,800 quite an impressive quite an impressive
