Robots at Work and Play
Advancements in robotics are continually taking place in the fields of space exploration, health care, public safety, entertainment, defense, and more. These machines -- some fully autonomous, some requiring human input -- extend our grasp, enhance our capabilities, and travel as our surrogates to places too dangerous for us to go. NASA currently has dozens of robotic missions underway, with satellites now in orbit around our moon and four planets -- and two more on the way to Ceres and Pluto. Gathered here are recent images of robotic technology at the beginning of the 21st century.

On Mars, NASA's Curiosity rover
images itself -- this image shows the rover's Alpha
Particle X-Ray Spectrometer (APXS), with the Martian
landscape in the background. The image was taken by
Curiosity's Mast Camera on the 32nd Martian day, or
sol, of operations on the surface (September 7,
2012). APXS can be seen in the middle of the
picture. This image let researchers know that the
APXS instrument had not become caked with dust
during Curiosity's dusty landing. Scientists
enhanced the color in this version to show the
Martian scene as it would appear under the lighting
conditions we have on Earth, which helps in
analyzing the terrain.
