Our astronaut Sophie Adenot shared this video on her social media channels with the caption:

[EN] Day 113, orbit 1753 — I love robotic operations! 🦾 In this timelapse, controllers on the ground are repositioning Dextre, our robotic handyman currently installed at the end of the Canadarm2. They used Dextre to unload equipment from the unpressurised Dragon trunk. Such a beautiful choreography to watch with Earth in the background!

Dextre is designed for delicate tasks and is attached to one end of Canadarm2 (the same robotic arm that we use to capture visiting cargo vehicles). Dextre is very often used to place scientific experiments outside of the ISS.

Go science! Go robotics!

Congratulations to the Canadian Space Agency 🇨🇦 for enabling these robotic systems!

[FR] Jour 113, orbite 1753 – J’adore les opérations robotiques ! 🦾 Dans ce timelapse, les contrôleurs au sol repositionnent Dextre, notre robot-bricoleur actuellement installé à l’extrémité du Canadarm2. Ils l’ont utilisé pour décharger du matériel depuis la soute non-pressurisée du cargo Dragon. Un vrai ballet spatial, avec la Terre en toile de fond !

Dextre est conçu pour les opérations délicates; il est attaché à l’une des extrémités du Canadarm2 (le bras robotique qui sert notamment à capturer les véhicules cargos). Dextre est très souvent utilisé pour positionner des expériences scientifiques à l’extérieur de la Station.

Vive la science ! Vive la robotique !

Bravo à l’Agence spatiale canadienne 🇨🇦 , experte en systèmes robotiques ! 🚀
