Robonaut, the robot now living inside the International Space Station. I find his tweets disturbing, especially this one after his awakening: “ISS, you are looking good this morning.” Maybe it’s because it reminds me of the aesthetic of Alien.
Or maybe it’s because I can imagine that, one day, it will not be a human tweeting but the son of the son of the son of Robonaut actually saying “Earth, you are looking good this morning” as it turns an orbital anti-matter cannon platform to face our planet. [Twitter]
