Space Robot Technology Development Overview

With the gradual development of space exploration and the increasing number of satellites in orbit, the demand for in-orbit maintenance and support missions is continuously rising. The in-orbit removal of space debris is increasingly receiving attention, all of which are driving the continuous development of space robot technology. This paper first reviews the development and testing of space robot technology in two time periods, then analyzes and sorts out the recent development characteristics of space robots, and provides insights for the development of China’s space robots.
