NASA's Valkyrie robot has a simpler hand than Robonaut, which operates on the International Space Station. Robonaut handles routine tasks that don't need advanced training, freeing astronauts for more complex work.

That we have on Valkyrie is different than this hand. It's simplified. But, um, this is— this, this hand is from Robonaut, which is the robotic astronaut on space station. So that robot's helping us out with, um, boring tasks that the astronauts can do. A lot of stuff that the astronauts can do but don't need a degree or even a high school degree to get to do. So you're not going to be able to get a job on the space station?
