Andrea the Martian Robot: Human Safety is a Primary Concern

By Anthony J. Deeney

Human safety is a primary concern. No other robot can rival the new Harrowgate & Webster models, which regularly demonstrate astounding problem solving abilities and a virtually human level of awareness. Recognising the advanced nature of these robots, Patricia Vicarro, director of a Mars colonization project in 2068, has selected HWR-001-046-QF Andrea to send to Mars in the first of a three stage project to build a colony. Everything must be perfect. Andrea spent nearly three years in isolation, preparing for Astronaut Adam Copelane's arrival. He will join Andrea in the second phase, building the colony pods for the third. Now, with everything ready for Adam, she watches the Martian sky eagerly, but there are powerful people who would wish the project to fail. Adam's life will depend on the resourceful nature of Andrea, a robot that was only 'switched on' five days before being launched towards Mars. How far will Andrea have to go to ensure his survival?What can Adam expect from a robot?
