Well maybe not R2C2 but definitely R2 and may be converted into a C2

It is the first robot on the ISS. It even has a tweeting account!

Well. the c2 came from the possibility of giving him wheels (hence become a centaur robot) it was a play on words/letters really. This is R2D2 great great great great great great grandfather?

That would have to involve time travel, since R2D2 was around a long time ago.

Oh yea. I guess that is right if we align Star Wars with our current time (Which I don't cause why are we so backward then? heheh)
