The kinematic design of a telerobotic mechanism for tending a plant growth space science experiment chamber is described. Ground based control of tending mechanisms internal to space science experiments will allow ground based principal investigators to interact directly with their space science experiments. This will enable tending of space science experiments on unmanned platforms as well as off-load tedious tending chores from astronauts to allow them to focus on other important activities. The plant growth chamber apparatus is being designed for use on the Space Station.
