Dexter in Space!

We are minutes away from witnessing the launch of the Endeavour space shuttle from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, USA. It's quite amazing that some people are unaware of something orbiting the Earth called the international space station...hmmm...interesting...

The shuttle will be taking up an interesting two-armed robot called Dextre. Its a Canadian made robotic arm which will help substitute astronauts going out for space-walks. The shuttle is also taking up a Japanese made science laboratory or a piece of it at least.

This is Dextre below...



Quite fascinating I must say.
