Controlling Robots on Mars (from Tested: The Show!)

Bobak Ferdowsi, systems engineer at NASA JPL (AKA Mohawk Guy), was a guest at our recent live show to talk about the challenges of controlling a robot on Mars. To illustrate the communications delay of interplanetary remote-control, Will and Jeremy stage a demo using a reprogrammed RC toy with time-delay controls!
