A classification of manipulation tasks is conducted to identify the central research questions of the addressed topic.It is investigated how symbolic task descriptions can be translated into meaningful robot commands.Among others, the developed concept is applied in an actual space robotics mission, in which an astronaut aboard the International Space Station (ISS) commands the humanoid robot Rollin'' Justin to maintain a Martian solar panel farm in a mock-up environment
