nasa’s robotic arm use in past and future space missions

Robotic space missions: an overall overview of the high-risk factors involved in manned space missions, forcing scientists to develop alternative strategies for space exploration, leading to advances in robotic space missions.
The superior ability of robots to venture into areas that are almost inaccessible in space increases their popularity as modern space science tools.
Different types of robots, such as humanoid robots, fliers, Rover and robot arms, are increasingly being used for different space missions.
Robot arm information from NASA: where is it?
The Canadian robot arm, called Canadarm, is a pioneer in the use of NASA\'s robot arm.
It was launched on space shuttle Columbia in November 12, 1981, making history as the first robotic arm in space, and has since made a valuable contribution to the success of many space missions.
Discovery\'s first shuttle mission encountered an unexpected problem, and ice deposits on the vents at the bottom of the shuttle needed to be removed before returning.
Solved this problem using Canadarm.
Until then, scientists did not have enough attention to make the most of the potential of this huge arm.
Canadarm helps to retrieve and fix problems in satellites, fix the Hubble Space Telescope, and is now working with Canadarm 2 on the international space station, which is helpful for the construction of the station.
The two robot arms are able to move huge objects.
The ultra-sensitive laser measuring device installed on this robot arm can detect very small fractures on the surface of the shuttle, thus avoiding future disasters in the shuttle mission.
The robot arm on the MarsNASA robot arm uses state-of-the-art in the Mars mission.
The early Viking lander mission used robotic arms with limited flexibility to explore the surface of Mars.
Mars Polar Lander (January 3, 1999)
It was using robotic arms to collect water ice from the south pole of Mars, but it was lost on landing.
NASA used robotic weapons in the Mars probe mission, such as Spirit and its companion opportunities, to closely study the rocks on the surface of Mars.
NASA\'s Phoenix Mars lander, launched in August 4, 2007, uses robotic arms to collect materials on the surface of Mars.
This multi-purpose
The 5-meter-long robot arm can perform four different types of movements.
It is designed to dig and retrieve ice and soil hidden under the surface.
Future Mars mission for future plans (
Planned to be launched in 2011)
Curiosity has one of the most complex robotic arms.
With its own Alpha Particle X-
Ray spectrometer, the robot arm is expected to sense the wealth of different chemicals in the soil, rocks and dust on the surface of Mars. This 2.
The 3 M arm is capable of drilling holes and more precise operations.
NASA is currently working on a robotic arm-a robotic system on the surface of the Moon (LSMS)
For its future moon mission.
Conclusion nasa\'s use of robotic arms varies from task to task, and has become an indispensable tool in space exploration.
These weapons are universal;
They can carry a variety of instruments, take thousands of images from different angles, have a high degree of mobility, and most importantly can complete tasks that are almost impossible.
