Space Robotics:
Past Experience and Future
Considerations
ABSTRACT
I
The paper analyzes the logic of
space robotics development and summarizes the
long-term experience of orbital unique objects
operation, that of Canadarm, Canadarm‑2 ma-
nipulators, and the mobile service system of
the ISS. The robotic elements in the assembly
of the Mir space station: cargo booms and the
docking manipulator, the Buran remote manipu-
lator system are evaluated. Directions for further
space robotics development are suggested. It is
shown that one of the most urgent is the problem
of automated installation and maintenance of ad-
vanced modular multifunctional stackable space
systems.
Keywords:
space robotics, modular principle of
space objects construction, robotic docking, space
assembly and service robotic systems
