Space robots – just the title already sounds promising, right? If you are thinking R2D2 now, that is actually really where the episode starts. But we then move quickly on to talking about the use of robots for satellite servicing, because that is what Rogue Space Systems from New Hamphire is working on. My guest is the CEO & Founder, Jeromy Grimmett. It’s a fun episode – enjoy!
