Student examine the ascent stage of a NASA space shuttle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--space-shuttle-launch
NASA - Robonaut 2: First Humanoid Robot in Space
NASA uses robots in many ways to help with space exploration. When it’s possible for robots to perform tasks, rather than people, there are some obvious advantages. Robots do not have to eat, drink, breathe, or sleep. They can perform tasks over and over in exactly the same way without gett...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--robonaut-2-first-humanoid-robot-in-space
