Shits so cool, honestly at this point I bet we are gonna see some small colonization on the moon in the next 30 years, I mean they need to test that shit on something before they try it on mars anyways I feel like and the moon is close as fuck and technology just gets more insane every day.
Some things are still left unanswered (power for the robots, and some meteorites just being too damn large to protect against), but it does seem like one of the most clever ways of creating a colony on the moon for now.
yoooo this is possible

They aim to land at the more illuminated pole of the moon

Underground moon base would be best, adding this lattice thing to it would probably be even better.
It's a neat idea, seems like a beginning to a teraforming tech. I guess it all comes down to the cost.
