Canadarm
The Canadarm is a robotic arm used on the International Space Station (ISS) and past Space Shuttles to perform tasks like capturing cargo spacecraft, assembling station modules, and aiding crew members outside the station. It's operated remotely by astronauts or ground controllers, providing precision movement in the zero-gravity environment. The Canadarm enhances safety and efficiency by handling heavy or delicate objects, reducing the need for astronauts to perform risky extravehicular activities. Its successful use has been vital in constructing and maintaining decades of space infrastructure, showcasing advanced robotic technology in space operations.
