In this Aug. 4, 2010 picture provided by NASA, NASA astronaut Michael Barratt,
STS-133 mission specialist, shakes hands with Robonaut 2 during a news confer-
-ence in the Space Vehicle Mock-up Facility at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in
Houston. Ron Diftler, NASA Robonaut project manager, is at left. Robonaut 2 is
hitching a one-way ride to the International Space Station on the final flight of
the space shuttle Discovery scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 3, 2010. NASA hopes
one day he will assist flesh-and-bone astronauts in orbit. --( AP Photo/NASA, Lauren Harnett)
