Description: A common sight around space stations, shipyards and transfer point flotillas, the maintenance bot is primarily a labor saving device, able to perform minor repairs and visual inspections without requiring a crewman to don an EVA pressure suit and enter the void – which is always a danger. It is not a true autonomous robot as it still requires a crewman to direct its functions from a remote control station but its high degree of artificial intelligence allows it to automatically monitor its own movement, allowing even a relatively unskilled technician to operate it adequately.

Unarmed for obvious reasons, the maintenance bot carries a fire extinguisher capable of quickly snuffing fuel-based fires. As most ship-fires are fueled by leaking atmosphere, a maintenance bot’s extinguisher fires a dense, thick foam to not only stamp out the existing flames but to clog up any life-support leaks a vessel might have – starving the fire and hopefully saving anyone inside from hypoxia.
