ASTRO-NEUTER
First, "Star Wars"; now, gender wars. Consider that NASA has unveiled the amazing R2 - short for Robonaut 2 - a new astronaut "helper" robot that has been under development by the federal space agency and General Motors since 1997. Now, R2 is destined to dramatically rocket off to the International Space Station on Nov. 1, never to return.
