Caltech Robot Assembles Space Structure Without Astronauts for First Time
太空“自己搭积木”：机器人首次无宇航员在轨组装结构
Developed by Caltech researchers under DARPA's NOM4D program, an autonomous robot system successfully assembled initial segments of a space structure in orbit without astronaut intervention. Although the full 11-segment antenna was not completed before the mission ended, the demonstration proved the feasibility of building large-scale structures like telescopes and solar arrays directly in space, overcoming launch fairing size limitations.
