Role of Robotics in Space

Kulkarni Kiran Prakashrao, Dr Nahar Priyank

Abstract


Today space science is in the developing phase getting success in a land over the moon & mars. As we know the universe is expanding. We talk about only the known universe. We cannot succeed to explore so many planets of an unknown universe. To learn more about our universe as well as to understand any possibility of life on another planet NASA /ISRO / ROCOSMOS / BNSC /JAXA / CNSA / CNES like space agencies makes different program and checks the results. All space missions are not possible with astronauts. To avoid unnecessary risk so many countries try different animals for space travel but they do not succeed in it. Russia sends dogs first time for space travel & results we know very well. The new concept comes in front why not try robots for space travel and space missions yes, space robots are equally important. Curiosity, Pathfinder, Rover, chandrayan, Vikram is some of them. Space robotics deals with a substitute or subsidy for the man activities in space by a robot to minimize the risk and to increase the efficiency and accuracy. One of the most difficult uses of robots is in space. Space travel has always been dangerous, sometimes death also. The only way is to replace the astronaut with robots. Robots are the best alternate giving more accurate performance than a human being Today's robots are capable to navigate their way cleverly passing through every obstacle that comes in the way. In other words, robots are experts in Obstacle Avoidance, Mapping, and Path Planning. Robots have become the first choice for space travel as Robots can work efficiently in a hostile non-terrestrial environment Planetary surfaces can be explored more cheaply and quickly less expensive and dangerous incidents can be reduced. Intellectual control, mobility, reconfigurable approaches, and recognition are all desired features for space robotics devices. These characteristics necessitate significant advancements in computer science, mechanics, and control technology. New robotics system prospects in the cosmic environment are regarded as a high-tech priority that necessitates non-trivial and constructive architectures. Specific novel communication techniques, the effect of weightlessness and automatic behavior of robots cannot be verified on ground condition so that all innovative decision need to be tested and demonstrated in open space condition within realistic scenario time comes to introduce artificially intelligent humanoids in space giving more better results in search of existence of life on other planets too.
