Hitachi Construction Machinery – Moon from earth and Mars from Mars Orbit is cheaper

The operation support systems can support safe and efficient work even from a remote operation. We are developing a function that assists excavation work and automates a part of the loading work on dump trucks. https://pic.twitter.com/CWCbfg5mQp

Adjusting for a 1.3 light second delay from the moon to earth, you could probably operate equipment on the moon. You need different bracing to deliver force because mass is way too expensive there. You might need robot “hands” too. Mars tools from Mars orbit, cheaper than humans.
