An engaging look at the global impact of robots and robotics, discovering how robots move, sense and make decisions in the service of humans
Exploration is a risky business. Advances in technology now mean that in many situations we can send machines to explore, rather than risk human lives. Among other amazing feats, robot explorers can climb into an active volcano, dive to the deepest point on Earth and travel to the dwarf planet Pluto. In this book, aimed at children aged 8+, readers can meet these robot explorers and many more, then try a quick quiz to find out how much they have learned.

Clive Gifford is the author of more than 150 children's books including Eye Benders, winner of the Royal Society Young People's Book Prize, Royal Society-nominated Out of This World and Cool Technology which won the School Library Association Information Book Award. His book, The Colours of History, won the Blue Peter Book Awards' Best Book With Facts. He has travelled through 70 countries, run a computer games company and taken part in all manner of sports from parachuting and gliding to Ultimate Frisbee.
