All right, see? You guys should try it out.

Robotic rover

Light detection and ranging.

Attention, robot probes!

We have a device.

So the way to install packages, and, before I say. Let me, let me also say.

Send a robot probe!

Here we have Juno on its cruise to Jupiter, there.

Tremendous and beautiful discovery.

What do you see coming up?

An imperial probe droid.

Ken couldn't get a piano as a kid.

But that leaves a real riddle.

Well you may see the impact already now.

And that's a picture of me in front of it for scale.

United Planets Cruiser C57D...

Actually, I was looking for Agent Gibbs.

In other words, we'd have to stop exploiting the best policy we'd found so far which is this one and start exploring, to see if maybe there's a better policy.

Now, no one will argue that we don't have robots.

Now we have to get through the ice.

Let's run that last sweep again.

When is it worth exploring to try to find something better for the long term even though we know that exploring is going to hurt us in the short term?

And it's actually broader than it used to be.

Dradis sweeps indicate it's time to break out the swimsuits... because we've found water!

Send another probe at once!

I'm ordering you to cease... I'm ordering you to cease and desist.

So one of the tools that we use to sample the deep ocean are remotely operated vehicles.

And it's made today in these difficult economic times.

And we stole recently a ship from the United States Navy.

That's good to know.

I was on my knees as a 13 year old,

Meyer is looking for a new investigator.

And so at last mankind began the conquest and colonization of deep space.

Right after I completed my Ph.D.,

And so, I suppose you want to know what my wish is.

United Planets Cruiser C57D, J.J. Adams commanding.

We'll jump to another sector and start the search all over again.

The probe materialized at the target coordinates.

It used to be a survey that of the top million sites and now it's sort of the top ten million sites.

So, there must be underwater hot springs.

Europa is so far away that even at the speed of light, it would take more than an hour for the command just to reach the vehicle.

And the final robot I'm showing you here. This was built with my colleague Will Whittaker at Carnegie Melon University.

But even tiny Enceladus may be large enough to hide life.

It was amazing. These giant chimneys, huge giant chimneys.

I didn't bring a warrant with me, Mrs. Palmer.
