The cool looking robot dubbed Eurobot has at last passed the Weightless Environment Test; this was announced by ESA (European Space Agency). Eurobot is a three armed robot that has similar strength to humans, the only downside is that Eurobot has jointed limbs in 7 places but and a big but makes the robot move a pivot in ways humans arms cannot. The test which is called the neutral buoyancy test was mainly meant to examine whether or not the robot could complete simple tasks like putting away tools and equipment, or holding objects for workers in a weightless situation and it did all of these easily. This means that this robot will be fantastic on space missions and do jobs that us humans would find difficult to do. GO THERE Eurobot YOU THE MAN ROBOT.
