<STRONG>Overview of the PSA</STRONG>: The Personal Satellite Assistant
          (PSA) is a volleyball-sized robot that was prototyped in 2003-2004 to operate
           on a wide variety of spacecraft and could even go to
          Mars. The goal was to provide the astronauts with a robot assistant
          to help them with their daily tasks, monitor the environment on the space vehicle, and
          to venture into situations that might be too dangerous for humans.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://psa.arc.nasa.gov/abou.shtml"><table background="undefined" bgcolor="#000000"><tr><TD width="579" valign="top" class="footer"><A title="NASA Quest" class="footer" target="_blank" href="http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/">NASA Quest</A>  |
