"In a surprising and potentially troubling request, the new space station robot known as Dextre demanded that astronauts refer to it in the future at 'Dextre the Magnificent.' Brandishing power tools that would make any handyperson blush, the mobile servicing system thanked humans for creating it and promised a glorious future where humans would retain an important role in the new robot order."
