BOSTON: NASA is developing a six-feet tall humanoid robot that could assist astronauts in risky and extremely hazardous deep space missions to Mars and asteroids in the future. 

The US space agency is considering ushering new humanoid robots that could offer astronauts a helping hand in future expeditions. 

"NASA is counting on robots to setup and care for deep space exploration facilities and equipment pre-deployed ahead of astronauts," Sasha Congiu Ellis of NASA's Langley Research Centre, told Astrowatch.net. 

"Robots are also excellent precursors for conducting science missions ahead of human exploration," Ellis said. 

That is why the agency is developing a six-feet tall humanoid robot called R5, previously known as Valkyrie. The machine weighs about 131 kilogrammes.
