NASA’s Valkyrie Robot In Preparation For Mars And Moon Trips

Handout picture shows NASA’s Valkyrie robot is beginning a new mission Down Under - by heading to Australia to test out its capabilities. It will join the team at Woodside Energy in Perth, Western Australia, on July 06, 2023. Woodside Energy will test the humanoid robot and provide data and feedback to NASA, helping accelerate the maturation of robotic technology. Capabilities worked on in Australia may have applications for NASA’s Artemis missions and for other Earth-based robotics objectives. NASA plans to leverage experience operating Valkyrie in Woodside’s facilities to learn how to better design robots for work in dirty and hazardous conditions, like those found on the Moon at the long-term worksites and habitats that will be established as part of future Artemis missions. Remotely operated mobile robots on the lunar and Martian surface could enable Earth-based operators to conduct important activities, even when astronauts are not physically present. These activities include inspection and maintenance o
