Not sure if the URL to Flickr will work once this is posted, but there are other autographs from astronauts, too, such as Scott Kelly, Sandy Magnus and others.
Obligatory:
Another way to interpret that is that consumer scale robotics (at least the humanoid kind) haven’t come very far in the last decade. This is what was considered a high-end mobile phone in 2004:
Compare that to a current iPhone or Android device and it’s night-and-day. Compare ASIMO of 2004 to the most advanced humanoid robots today and you get… an almost identical version of ASIMO.
