This paper reports space experimental result for the Tethered Space Robot -S (TSR-S) on the sounding rocket "S-520-25." The tethered space robot is a new type of space robot connected to tether. The major advantage of the tethered space robot is that its attitude can be controlled under tether tension by its own link motion. The S-520-25 was launched on August 31, the TSR-S experiment started at 285 seconds after the launch. Tether was extended and kept its tension, and attitude control of the robot was performed.
