When they needed a helping hand in orbit, astronauts could count on NASA’s reliable Robonaut. Diane Tedeschi Robonaut 1A was a test unit in the robotics lab at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston.

NASA is no stranger to spacefaring robots. But the first human-shaped robot to fly to the International Space Station is something special. That's why the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum ...

A small robotic surgeon was successfully launched to the International Space Station last week. It was joined by a bunch of equally impressive experiments, including machine learning devices and ...

If you entered a test site operated by Japan’s space agency recently, you would’ve seen a bunch of tiny red robots trundling across a sandy surface. The AI-powered robots were being tested ahead of a ...

5-23-16 update: Cyclone Space Mining was so close to big mining runs at NASA’s annual robotics competition. But, a broken frame disabled one of the team’s two robots during the team’s first run. Then, ...
