Two of those three cameras are tiny and are already used for medical purposes like endoscopy. Two years since NASA's Robotic Refuelling Mission (RRM) was active, the system now has a new function to offer: RRM can now refuel satellite tanks, hold visual inspections in low orbit and replace instruments if needed without the need for a crew. The mission is part of an ongoing effort by NASA to develop robotic systems that will be able to perform tasks beyond Earth orbit.
