Okay, there's no way this is going to end well for our intrepid spacewalkers. Someone's gonna hack that sucker, get it to re-program the 100-foot laser tipped boom and we're gonna have an old fashioned "robot on the loose" scenario.
First, we give it the name of Showtime's serial killer. Nice.
Second, dangerous outdoor work. Like, say, "accidentally" slicing through hydraulic lines so the kids inside can't get out?
We're gonna get a movie about this soon. Either that, or a rundown of "What went wrong" on the Discovery Channel.

| After linking up with the international space station, Endeavour's astronauts got right to work Thursday unloading the parts they'll need to build a giant robot that will help maintain the orbiting outpost Astronauts Robert Behnken and Gregory Johnson were using the station's robotic arm to pull a pallet containing the Canadian robot, named Dextre, from Endeavour's cargo bay and install it temporarily on a station girder Dextre -- short for dexterous and pronounced like Dexter -- is designed to assist spacewalking astronauts and, ultimately, to take over some of their dangerous outdoor work |
