How Robots Will Help Humans Explore The Moon
When humans return to the Moon, they will need a lot of assistance to set up a settlement and carry out all the missions. They will need a lot of robots to do that. How exactly will it pan out? Figuring out with Professor Yang Gao from King's College London.

Although I don't doubt that robots could be useful on the moon I'm dubious about the concept of "Humans exploring the moon". What would be the purpose apart from "been there done that"? No one would want to live there permanently spending most of the time in a bunker and hoping the air doesn't run out. There can only be two logical reasons for robots on the moon and they are to build deep space telescopes and perform experiments that are too dangerous for Earth (the beloved Anti-matter experiments of Sci-Fi etc.) Humans could go there occasionally for maintenance visits.
