Robonaut Is Getting Ready For His Big Trip to Space

He has been crated up and shipped to Kennedy Space Center. At the Space Station Processing Facility there, he is going to be carefully packed into his SLEEPR — the Structural Launch Enclosure to Effectively Protect Robonaut.

At over 220 kilograms, the packed-up Robonaut will be perhaps the heaviest cargo ever carried in a space cargo module, according to NASA.
