NASA's Robonaut

Not only is NASA working on removing pilots from the skies, they also want to replace us on spacewalks as well. Fortunately for us, the Robonaut is designed to be remotely-controlled by a human, thus preventing a team of renegade Robonauts from taking over the International Space Station. Should be a while before we see one of these in orbit, but NASA says that they've been having a lot of success having Robonauts practice doing simulated repairs on the Hubble Space Telescope.
