The Canadarm is an amazing feat for Canada, and upon showing it to the world, it changed Canada forever by placing Canada on the World Stage for technological and robotic achievement. The Canadarm has affected Canada as well as space and will contribute to future developments and discoveries not thought imaginable before the conception of it. It has led to the innovation and interest of technology making Canada a leading country in technology and robotics, has provided a sense of nationalism and pride, and has placed Canada in a position of academic hierarchy, and by producing an excitement for new discoveries and the drive to invent new technologies, the Canadarm has changed Canada forever. One could lead to the conclusion that the Canadarm has changed Canadian identity due to a sense of nationalism, a drive to develop new technologies, and given Canada global recognition of their scientific achievements.

The development of new technologies has led to a excitement for the development of new technologies. This excitement has produced many other technologies including Dextre, the space probe, IGAR, a robot for the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, and KidsArm, a robot designed to be used in many practises to remove tumors. These robots can be identified as the offspring of the …show more content…

It’s roles include maintenance work and repairs like changing batteries and replacing cameras outside the ISS. This ensures astronaut safety since Dextre can conduct the missions that previously needed to be completed by dangerous spacewalks. Having Dextre has led to unique and opportune testing for new robotic concepts like servicing satellites Dextre’s success, being built with the same technologies as the Canadarm, and built by the same company, is awarded to Canada. This technology has been even further developed into other technologies used in many Canadian hospitals to conduct difficult
