NOORDWIJK, Netherlands: European experts have pulled off a major advance that might one day help build new worlds in space after an astronaut in the International Space Station remotely guided a robot on Earth by feel.
Danish astronaut Andreas Mogensen performed the breath-taking experiment in which he placed a peg into a very tight hole on Monday under the careful control of the European Space Agency.
While orbiting some 400 kilometres above Earth, Mogensen took control of the Interact Centaur rover which has a pair of arms for delicate, high-precision work.
