Hayabusa

People have been vaguely asking about the conference I attended in Japan. This was iSAIRAS (which stands for the International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and Automation in Space). The attendees were predominantly engineers and roboticists rather than computer scientists. Although many of the talks were way outside my field of expertise, I found much of it really interesting. So, on the grounds that space exploration, is interesting just because, I thought I might blog about some of the talks.
