Comments.Text: There are lots of types of robots. Many don't use machine learning at all (it's actually quite dangerous to use black-box learners on machines that could cause damage if incorrectly operated), and I'm pretty sure you will also find plenty that use each type of ML depending on purpose. Many will use multiple types of ML, for different sub-tasks withinn the robot. One way to narrow this question down would be to ask about a specific type of robot

Comments.Text: The general question asks for a general answer. There's the risk that this will lead to many different answers, though, which we want to prevent. I think a good answer to this question would be general and maybe provide 1-2 specific examples. Anyway, yes, some robots use ML, in labs, at least. I am pretty of this because I know people that did research on this. Now, I don't really know about the robots for space. So, what I'd suggest is that you at least narrow down the type of robot, although you're already saying "especially the robots that were sent in space", which might still be too broad

Comments.Text: So, please, if you're interested only in robots that were sent into space, edit your question, including the title, to be specific. Otherwise you will get answers for all types of robots and this might be too broad. If you always aks multiple questions, one for each type of robot you have in mind.
