The Canadarm (technically called the Shuttle Remote Manipulator System) is used to lift and manipulate satellites, parts, and other equipment from the payload bay of the shuttles to their correct position. It is also sometimes used to move an astronaut to another part of the outside of the space station or shuttle.

Why aren't space shuttles a space probe?

Would it be correct to record the length of the string as 0.48 decimeters or 0.4800 decimeters?
0.48 has 2 significant figures and 0.4800 has 4 significant figures. The correct answer would depend on the device used to measure the string, and on the precision of that instrument.
How many significant figures are justified in a measurement of a length that is between 9 and 10 centimeters if the measuring device ruler has smallest divisions of 0.1 cm?
You would need to record to the 0.1 cm, then estimate the next significant figure. So you should have a measurement to the 0.01 cm.
