Meet The REAL Iron Man!

April 22nd 2010 08:42

NASA will be sending a humanoid robot by the name of Robonaut2 to the International Space Station space shuttle Discovery mission this September. Not only does he look cool, he lifts weights as well! (Next thing you know, he will have a recurring role on "The Jersey Shore!") He was created by General Motors and NASA. R2 as he is also known as (Is he related to R2D2?) has the dexterity of a human, allowing him to be able to work alongside "real" humans, and can lift four times more than his predecessor. (Are you sure that isn't Robert Downey Jr. in there?)

Check out his cool pictures! (Hey, he's kinda cute...a few more "pieces" and real men will have some REAL competition!)
