NASA, GM TAKE GIANT LEAP IN ROBOTIC TECHNOLOGY JSC (NEW)
NASA and General Motors are working together to accelerate development of the next generation
of Robots and related technologies for use in both the automotive and aerospace industries.
Using leading edge control, sensor and vision technologies, NASA and GM engineers and
scientists came together at NASAs Johnson Space Center through a Space Act Agreement
to build a new dexterous humanoid robot capable of working side by side with people whether
that means helping GM create safer cars and safer manufacturing plants or assisting NASA
astronauts on dangerous space missions.

  • If we had a billion of these we could conquer the solar system. Mars would be terraformed, cities on every planet and moon, space stations that dwarf the ISS, mining operations on the asteroid belt, water extraction from the Oort cloud. You'd just have to worry about making it into Gattaca Corp :)
