this area held at NASA Ames. Its purpose is the advancement of a Robotic Systems Science for long term robotic presence and human robotic interaction on planetary
surfaces and in space systems. Self-sustaining robotic systems offer the possibility
of increasing scientific returns, decreasing exploration costs and reducing
chances of mission failures.
The
number of participants will be limited. To request an invitation to the
Robosphere workshop please submit an extended abstract (3 to 5 pages) or
a statement of interest. Deadline for extended abstract submission is September
