CRASAR Director Robin Murphy
is briefly back from Japan
and hoping to return soon as part of a full deployment.
She also links to
a collection of photos
relating to the ongoing efforts surrounding
the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant.
IEEE Spectrum's Automaton blog
focuses on the autonomous nature
of the U.S. Navy's X-47B Unmanned Combat Air System (UCAS),
and embeds a
video of the prototype's first flight.
Automaton has also published
a brief article on the Mars Rover,
including a link to  
a video that animates the complex series of steps
involved in getting it onto the surface of Mars.
