Space robot for the International Space Station.
While we here in the U.K. were blinded by Novichok and Brexit, the world was awaiting Russia's new Robot that is to change Space for ever with its ability to work outside the station on dangerous missions and saving the lives of valued human beings!
This is the first generational robot in humanoid form, Russia has used robot space ships the Progress series to supply the ISS for nearly fifty years now and their abandoned Buran shuttle was the first aircraft to be totally robotic even before drones were?
Sometimes there is a lot of jealousy in the world to what others can do, but when we get together and work what we can achieve within reason for the betterment of humanity? The future of travel to the Moon, Mars and perhaps the moons of other planets in the next one-hundred years will be determined by robots wither helping us humans or doing most of the work for us!

Re-Cycling.
Machines die Too.
Technology is always moving on and it leaves behind the old, some of the old go to museums and collectors, while the rest goes to scrap. The price of metals has slumped world wide, apart from a few precious ones, along with gold and diamonds. Most commercial aircraft contain many high value materials, along with nuclear powered naval vessels and bomber/fighter jets.
But generally most cars, ships and trains are made of steel and this can be re-cycled! Currently the United Kingdom is facing the end of its groaning steel industry, because of the Chinese glut of steel. One way to save these old plants would be to update them to re-cycle steel. Much is being said that we need to keep these plants, because of the arms industry?
But what the general public do not realise, that much of Britain's arms industry is now based with BAE system in the Republic of South-Africa. Appledore Devon last year built three frigate's for the Irish navy, Falmouth continues to build a line of small composite-material fast attack craft for the Persian Gulf states.
While Flint-Wrexham has the Airbus wings production facility. But Britain has no major shipyards, aircraft manufacturing or owns any part any longer in any mass production car plants. Now the E.U is warning that Brexit may see the loss of Airbus and several other European owned businesses.
