The connections between extraterrestrial exploration and the terrestrial interests of the robotics industry are becoming more apparent as the twentieth century draws to a close. Previously, space applications of robotics technology had occupied an insignificant position with respect to the robotics industry. With few exceptions, space robot projects consumed millions of dollars in R&D expenditure, had limited success, and had little relevance to the industry's development. That situation is now changing as national space agencies adapt to new political and economic realities. This paper explores the changing context of space robotics and the concomitant emergence of a high-growth market opportunity in field robotics.
