Description
Robots play a crucial role in space exploration. They can travel to areas that humans cannot survive, such as the outer solar system.
One example is the New Horizons probe, which is currently heading towards Pluto. This and other space robots serve as our eyes, ears, and hands in space, allowing us to gather information about the universe.
This book explores how robots are used in space exploration through fantastic photos, kid-friendly explanations of science concepts, and useful diagrams.
