Creepy NASA robot snake could one day slither on alien worlds

Meet NASA's EELS (Exobiology Extant Life Surveyor), a new robot snake that could one day explore moons and planets. It can "autonomously map, traverse, and explore previously inaccessible destinations" on Earth and beyond, according to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

Very useful robot for many alien worlds, including some very high gravity ones.

I'm starting to think that we are the aliens 🤐

[@GR33TINGSEARTHL1NGS]

Imagine the type of terrorism and warfare that could be carried out when something like this becomes sophistocated enough. Like a mechanical eel that swims up your drainpipe and into your toilet bowl to catch you with your pants down. Scary.

I like how it also have(s) worm gears. Also, is it black because it'll be covered in solar panels to survive?

[@schrodingersmechanic7622]

Yeah that's gonna last in a high dust environment like Mars /s

[@frogfichtrlustr369]

I know right ? it’s as if it was a prototype ?!??!😮 NASA people really think we’re idiots 😂🎉😂

NaNi....!?!?

Hope we can soon see it in the Atacama desert!

Gotta move quicker than that.

🙄👀 They need to move through space like the Dolphin Kick, going up down up down. Olympic swimmers show how but it's how dolphins move through water. Not like a snake swims on earth side to side. Although I guess that maneuver could have value somehow. But from what I've gathered what's already out there in eternal flight moves with the Dolphin Kick type of motion. They have been trying to figure out how to land and stop gracefully, rather than hurling themselves at solid objects in the form of craggy asteroid and or comets for egg shells. So they just hurl themselves about and into planets and stars for something to do because being in eternal flight is extremely boring beyond imagination. God wasn't playing. He punished them with eternal flight but on Earth they do indeed suffer under our heels. 🙄 They basically hate gravity because of the dangling sensation when they're stuck to something with their mouths, of which they yet have no eyes, ears, or noses. They're basically mouths with a toe. 🙄 They nictate to try to gain entrance into bodies through flesh, which they're too damned good at penetrating to make way through the bloodstream to various biological systems in the lungs, liver, kidneys, brain, spinal column but most of all they love the digestive system where they wait for tasty snacks humans eat with sugars. Their favorite is cookies but then every pastry, cake, bread, pasta and everything with sucrose is a cookie to them. In outer space they eat everything elemental. But here on Earth, humans messed up by eating forbidden fruit loaded with sugars in a fruit which contained parasitic worms or something like that and we've been 🤬ed ever since. Ingesting them brought mortal diseases to the human species. They themselves live millions and even billions of years in space, starting from a micrometer size egg which is practically indestructible. 😖. They grow to be light-years in length. 😖. They also hate to be alone and lonely, both. They're herd types of species like no other, to the point they cuddle up so much so hard they literally fuse together. They try to fuse into flesh, even human flesh, and might one day unlock the secrets of regenerating ligaments and limbs and skin, but for now, I only know them to fake our skin enough as scabs which unfortunately don't heal then, naturally returning to healthy skin after injury as it should, but only increasing the wound area which must be debrided thoroughly down to the last. They're absolute masters of disguise and concealment like no other in a league of their own. They are our wrinkles of age. They are cancerous tumors when they get stuck in us and either malignantly reproduce in place or benignly lay dormant unnoticed, indefinitely. They can metastisize throughout a human biological system when the perfect storm of immunity failure and self care failure and any other miscellaneous unknown failure occurs to cause them to spread and exponentially reproduce. They're not shy when they run into other internal human parasitic visitors. Invaders. Host animal guests. 🙄 I'll repeat. THEY'RE NOT SHY when it comes to other guests. 😖 Some of them like violin music. 🙄 Or it could be just in some stages they're so thin and wispy like string theories 😏 they just get carried along with the sound waves. They might be in everything. 😖 Literally. 😖 They might be the dust in the air and that collects on surfaces. They might be in rain clouds. That's my biggest challenge to figure out lately. Or else I just don't want to fathom they've been hanging over our heads falling down on us and around us everywhere. I'll probably take a few more years pondering that one. HOWEVER, there is a stage of one of there's that is what I call STICKY WATER. If you watch videos of water on the INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION, you'll understand that basic concept immediately. 😖 They can be found sticking their heads out of things they are residing in, by looking for white specks then tracing their length of wormy bodies just under the surface. Like beef jerky and Slim Jim's and water on the ISS and are easiest to see in still pictures. They are easy to see in the blur of blurry pictures and scientists have acknowledged we don't yet have the photographic capabilities to capture their images in some of their forms. They are multidimensional. 🙄 They are capable of multiphased states of matter. And,...oh would you look at the time! Sorry! I make no apologies. Gotta' go before the library closes! 👻🐍🪱 👀😳, 😁🙄. 😖.

Brilliant! 👍 Skill and creative thinking... M 🦘🏏😎
