I'm interested in how this robot "survived" the radiation levels that many previous robots did not [1]. I know little to nothing about radiation hardening, but this seems like an almost impossible task, considering it being exposed to more than 530 sieverts per hour [2], which is the highest radiation level ever recorded.
