摘要
In Earth orbit, astronomical observations are possible free from any absorption or disturbances by the Earth's atmosphere. Therefore, some large space telescopes and large space radio telescopes are planned for the future. We discuss the design of a radio telescope reflector which can be assembled in orbit by a space robot arm, with its networks and connecting mechanisms suitable for robot tasks. The characteristics of the new end-effector of robot arm and their suitability for onboard assembly tasks were confirmed by testing using a prototype end-effector and a two dimensional ground test arm. The test results are also described in this paper.
