Robotic Refueling Mission Demo

Robots present certain advantages when working in the harsh environment of space. They re not susceptible to hunger, to sleepiness, or catastrophic injury for starters. They re also capable of highly precise, yet highly tedious tasks tasks that might otherwise consume huge resources and attention from already busy astronauts and ground controllers. In an important demonstration of new technical methodologies, NASA engineers will try to simulate the transfer of fuel from one vehicle to another, in space, w
