NASA’s Robotic Technology for Space Construction: Self-assembling Structures and Future Possibilities

NASA’s latest innovation in space construction technology involves robotic self-assembling structures, which could significantly advance the way we build in space. The core of this technology lies in the use of cuboctahedral frames, referred to as voxels, that autonomously assemble into larger structures. These robotic systems promise to revolutionize space construction by enabling the assembly of complex, high-performance structures in space environments, potentially even before human arrival. This new approach to building in space represents a clever synergy between advanced robotics and innovative building materials, opening up new possibilities for future space missions and construction​.
