Russia sends its 1st, life-sized humanoid robot Fedor to space

The Russian space agency Roscosmos on Thursday sent an unmanned rocket carrying a life-size humanoid robot Fedor (Final Experimental Demonstration Object Research) to space. The robot is scheduled to spend 10 days learning to assist astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS). It repeated the first man to space, Yuri Gagarin's launch phrase, "Let's go! Let's go!" on being launched.
