About Robotics, Mechatronics and Automation that Help us Conquer the Cosmic Space

Abstract
Here we have to mention that all these SF writings and many others that have existed over time, especially in the 20th century, have influenced alongside obvious screenings, young people and not just them, to think more about our role, robots, into a better world. The robot's key role is to help the man make his work easier, safer, more enjoyable, just like a computerized machine that helps us work faster and better, the robot has an obvious role in making work easier, to work in our place when we are tired, when work is exhausting and repetitive, when the environment is toxic, hostile, dangerous and in many other situations. However, it is time to say that the role of the robot in the future is altogether another, namely, to help us conquer the cosmic space to expand ourselves as a race in the whole universe in which we are now. In fact, this is the robot's humanitarian role and in the future, it can be developed and prepared just for that purpose. Exploratory robots are robots that operate in hard-to-reach and dangerous locations, telegraph or partially autonomous. They can work for example in a region in military conflict, on the Moon or on Mars. A geared navigation on the ground in the last two cases is impossible due to distance. Communication signals arrive at their destination in a matter of hours and their reception lasts as long. In such situations, robots have to be programmed with several types of behavior, from which they choose the most appropriate and execute it. This type of robot equipped with sensors was also used to research pyramid wells. Several cryobots (cryo robots) have already been tested by NASA in Antarctica. This type of robot can reach up to 3,600 m through the ice. Cryobots can thus be used in polar head research on Mars and Europe in the hope of alien living. NASA has always said that understanding how to live and work in space for long periods of time has been a key goal of the International Space Station. But, from the White House, it may seem expensive this race around the Earth, considering that the mission costs about $ 8 million a day. Space makes us anxious. We are anxious that things go smoothly as if space flight should be infallible like a flight to London. And we are looking forward to a return on investment. We fly in space because of human ambition, because nothing gives us more resistance than trying to do what we have not done before. And we're flying in space because space is the eighth continent. We may eventually need asteroid or lunar resources, depending on how we manage the resources we have here on Earth. Eventually, we should become a species that will conquer other planets, whether we are no longer inside or that we actually destroy it or it will be destroyed.
