Rachael Wagner and Shane Farritor look over a robotic surgery device in the Virtual Incision facility in November 2022. Wagner, a University of Nebraska-Lincoln doctoral student who served as the project engineer, said watching the SpaceX rocket lift off into the clear blue skies was “living a little bit of a dream.”

The space robot will sent into space in a similar-sized box as shown in this photo from a June, 2023 flight. The astronauts will unload the Dragon Cargo vehicle and move it into the International Space Station.

Sean Crimmins, senior in engineering, loads the robotic arm into its case before the shake test in August. Virtual Incision is sending its surgical robotic art to the space station. Virtual Incision employees had the arm and the case that will take it into space tested at Lincoln’s NCEE labs.
