NASA is exploring the future of human-robot interaction (HRI) for future missions, including sending social robots as teammates on missions such as the Gateway Space Station. HRI is a crucial aspect to consider as NASA aims to lengthen the time of civilian crews in space and develop the right level of control for both humans and robots.

Summary

NASA is still indecisive on whether to send couples or single crew members to space missions as both options have their own conflict issues. Researchers brought a social robot on a zero-gravity flight in 2017 to investigate the potential of social robots as teammates for astronauts on future missions.
