Building and Fixing Things In Space With Robotics
The Age of the Space Robots has come! In-space servicing, assembly, and manufacturing technology, or ISAM, holds great promise for our society. This tech will transform how we operate in space, from constructing and repairing the future spacecraft and telescopes that will explore new worlds, to aiding potentially lifesaving medical research in microgravity, to improving space sustainability by reducing what we send up and bringing some of it back down. Our all-human panel isn’t as adorable as the cast of WALL-E, but they’re helping bring this game-changing technology into reality!
