Abstract Robots form an integral part of everyday life. When surveying the average home one may find numerous devices that are remote controlled or include integrated chips that contain forms of artificial intelligence. This shows the importance of robotics however this document does not cover the commercial robotics used on earth but rather explores a variety of fictional robots used in popular culture and compares their real-life counterparts in space. Each robot is discussed in isolation however many of the robots bare resemblance and therefore intertwine features and comparisons e.g. Robonaut who bares resemblance to humanoids in general and therefore is contained in an independent section rather than falling under “Accuracy” as with other space robots. There is also a brief section on some of the benefits delivered to humans from robotic technologies used on the International Space Station, merely to corroborate the importance of robotics and the reason for opting for this topic.
