Remember Kiroba? He is the cute little robot that I mentioned in March this year. At that time, he was preparing for the space station mission. Well, in August 2013, he took off from Earth and reaches the Space Station and on 21st August, he took the first robot step in space and make his first speech.

Here is the video.

BTW, he has a partner and backup crew on Earth. His name is Mirata. To know more about the project, click on the link below. I suggest you check out the “Development Process” and see how Kirobo was trained to become an Astronaut.
