content: That is impressive. So much progress with robots these days. I wonder how long it lasts on a charge.Nvidia also is showing off a robot called Blue controlled by their physics engine.https://www.reddit.com/r/singularity/comments/1jeh5cl/nvidia_showcases_blue_a_cute_little_robot_powered

content: I watched "The Martian" the other day for the umpteenth time, and connected the dots with Elon's sending his robot to Mars in a couple of years time. We'll have an endless movie franchise of his forlorn robot being followed around by drones. Possibly the worlds (Mars TM) largest interactive computer game.Sorry, can't resist comedic relief.

Just this week some astronauts that instead of a week had to spent 9 months in space. And that is relatively close by.
