Robonaut 2 in the Superbowl ?
One of the two twin Robonaut 2 robots developed by NASA and GM will appear during the Super Bowl pre-game show with Howie Long. This will be while the other twin is packed away aboard the space shuttle Discovery, awaiting the STS-133 launch (currently scheduled for Feb 24), and a ride to the International Space Station. See the full story here - http://blogs.wsj.com/drivers-seat/20...pre-game-show/
