NASA's Robonaut 2 (R2) arrived at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Aug. 9 to begin preparing for flight by being lifted from the shipping container and placed in a work stand on Tuesday, Aug. 10. R2 will become the first American-built humanoid robot to take up residence on the orbiting laboratory upon delivery to orbit on STS-133. Humanoid robots are expected to travel in space more in the next decade.
