The general use of robot manipulators is explained and the basics of their design and operation are described for the average reader. Several pages of the first chapter include a discussion on the use of robot manipulators in space. Possibilities for fully and partially automatic robots, robot manipulator and information robots for space shuttles, space stations, and planetary exploration are outlined. The only example given of robots actually used in space is a mention of the Soviet Lunokhod, which is characterized as the initial stage of planetary robot development. A short list of references is included. (Author)
