Robotic Arms in Space Missions

This lecture covers the design and operation of robotic arms used in space missions, such as the Shuttle Remote Manipulator System (SRMS) and the Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS). It explains their components, functions, and importance for tasks like Hubble Telescope servicing and International Space Station (ISS) support. The lecture also discusses the role of these robotic arms in extravehicular activities (EVA) and their installation in the Cupola module.
