      These are very cool projects. They have been around for a while now and required years of development. I haven’t been part of it. It would have been cool though. 🙂
      I am mainly working on planetary robotic systems, much smaller in size, aimed at bringing back samples from other planets. Our newest arm is about 2.3m long for a mass of about 15kg, compared to the 17m of the Canadarm with a mass of 1800kg…quite a difference…
