A robot has built a structure in space for the first time, a milestone that could lead to constructing large-scale space systems.

The robotic truss builder worked to construct a 1.4-meters-diameter reflector antenna without the help of astronauts.

It could enable large-scale structures, such as huge reflector surfaces, to be built in space, able to harvest solar power and wirelessly transmit it to Earth’s surface.
