The Chang'e 8 mission, in addition to scientific surveys and experiments, will test key technologies to lay the groundwork for the construction of a science and research base on the moon, Xinhua reported.

"3D printing works best at room temperature but over much of the Moon temperatures vary enormously across days and nights lasting two weeks each. For potential settlement, the lunar poles offer the most moderate temperature range."

Chang'e 8 will have a "Robot", a rover and lander.

The Robot will work together with the lander, deploying and helping in its Scientific Objectives and Payloads Instrumentation.

Previously CE8 would have a Hopper, but this is now part of CE7, and was replaced on CE8 by a articulated Robot...

Maybe first AI on Moon?
