Through the constant evolution of technology, we achieve several goals and, at the same time, design many others. Taking advantage of this, NASA did not hesitate to dare when it announced that it was working on the creation of a humanoid robot. Check now for more information about this creation and its importance.

In partnership with Apptronik, a company that manufactures industrial machines, NASA is in the construction phase of its newest humanoid robot. Named Apollo, the robot still does not support going into space, however it serves as an incentive to create specimens capable of doing so:
Getting to Know Apollo
According to the creators, Apollo is one of the best creations in existence. The way the robot behaves like a human being, such as handling tools, is simply fascinating. That is, the creation of Apollo brings great hope for a prosperous future, where we can use robots to help us in our tasks. It is even the desire of
NASA that in the future humanoid robots work in space exploration. Which will make the studies more complete and more qualified.Furthermore, the prediction for Apollo to appear to the public is still in 2023, with its commercialization starting next year.
The importance of robots for space exploration
Creations like Apollo are extremely essential to advance human exploration of space. That's because robots can take on tasks that are impossible for us, assuming any and all risks. In addition, the absence of fatigue in the robots further boosts the results achieved by them, as they have a high productivity.
Another benefit of producing robots for exploratory purposes is the ability to withstand harsh environments, as they are built to withstand extreme conditions. Moreover, when robots assume the role of data collection with excellence, as their advanced equipment (sensors and the like) boost this task.
Finally, the ease of controlling them through programming allows the possibility of carrying out numerous tasks, with great flexibility.
