The Falcon 9 Securing Robot, universally known as Octagrabber, is the name given to two robots that operate on SpaceX’s droneships, Of Course I Still Love You, Just Read the Instructions and A Shortfall of Gravitas.
The Octagrabber robots have four arms and tracks. After a booster landing, the robot is remotely driven out of its blast-protected garage and positioned underneath the booster. It uses four arms to then attach itself to the Falcon 9 octaweb, securing the whole booster for transit. Recovery teams still have to board the droneship to perform other post-landing tasks but the robot allows for a safer and more efficient recovery process.
