Nano2Sol by Marc Boucher

From science fiction to reality, NASA’s TETWalker robot successfully completed it’s first walk demonstrating technology that could eventually be minituarized and joined together to form autonomous nanotechnology swarms (ANTS).

Eventually ANTS will be able to “alter their shape to flow over rocky terrain or to create useful structures like communications antennae and solar sails. This technology has the potential to directly support NASA’s Vision for Space Exploration“.
