Meet Justin, the space robot. He’s clever, agile, wired to a human for control (of the robot, not the human) and he’s a possible solution for fixing orbiting satellites in the post-Shuttle era. If they’re dead, he can even fire them to their doom.
Justin’s the product of ongoing research by the Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics at DLR, the German Aerospace Center, and like many of his robot brethren he’s been through a number of iterations in his life. His current version was just displayed at the ILA 2010 Space Pavilion at the Berlin Airshow, and he was demonstrated on video.
