Robot Assembles Truss Structure in Orbit for Future Space Facilities
太空建造迈出关键一步：机器人首次在太空自主组装天线桁架，未来或建造千米级结构
A robot developed by Caltech and funded by DARPA successfully assembled a truss component in orbit as part of the Autonomous In-Space Tensioned Reflector Assembly (ASTRA) project. Although not a fully functional antenna, this demonstration marks the first autonomous structural assembly in space, validating a method to combine independent parts into larger structures without relying on astronauts. Ground teams still support task planning and fault diagnosis due to limited communication windows.

由于地面与机器人之间每天只有几次通信窗口，每次仅有 15 分钟，工程师需要利用这些时间检查机器人传回的照片，并在实验室中通过一台完全相同的模型排查问题，之后再向太空中的机器人发送操作指令。
