Penn’s Sung Robotics Lab is working with NASA to lead an initiative investigating how robots can explore and navigate extraterrestrial environments. The project, titled “Temporarily, Robots Unite to ...

In a quiet corner of the International Space Station, far from the bustle of experiments and Earth communications, three small robotic cubes drift through the air like hummingbirds in slow motion.

A Florida undergraduate student has traveled to NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. for the NASA Robotics Academy. In its second year, the annual NASA Robotics Academy introduces its 29 ...

The robot's flexible arms are a technology demonstration that could one day aid in satellite maintenance and space debris management. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Autonomous free-flying robots aboard the International Space Station (ISS) frequently lose their bearings. Without gravity to distinguish up from down, even precision sensors suffer from accumulating ...

NASA continues to test various robotic models in a simulated lunar surface as it works toward the goal of having humans back on the moon. The RASSOR (Regolith Advanced Surface Systems Operations Robot ...

Digging on the Moon is a hard job for a robot. It has to be able to collect and move lunar soil, or regolith, but anything launching to the Moon needs to be lightweight. The problem is excavators rely ...

Just to get ISAAC to the Hampton, Virginia facility was a challenge financially and physically. A huge crane from a local company barely had clearance to lift the ISAAC robot arm and set it down on ...
