Why Aren't the Moon & Mars Used for Robotics Test Sites?

Creating incentives for the wealth of robotics developers to test construction robots with human controllers in most cases on the moon and Mars is such an obvious synergetic 2-4-1 opportunity that one would think it would get started. Advancing human habitation construction research with robotics from the U.S.A., Europe, Japan, Russia and China is probably overdue. N.A.S.A. is still designing funky inflate-a-yurts and things that give astronauts something to do after they figure out how to move extra-planetary homes from Earth to wherever (call Mayflower).

Robots are just machines without a brain fundamentally. While the U.S. Government is already beginning to flood battlefields with predator drones to kill humans, drones for peace are not emphasized at all. N.A.S.A. could use some leadership that draws corporate research efforts into development of field projects to build human habitations from local extra-terrestrial materials or low tech materials from Earth so far as possible.

Like politicians with a shiny exterior or one in a suit stuffed with money robots may be just machines without a brain (central processing unit). They may have a tiny neuro mechanism enabling remote plutocrat controllers to operate their legislation from a distance while avoiding getting anything practical done for the poor and middle class yearning to breathe free where land its possible to own land themselves without it being levered away by government and redistributed to plutocracy. Some day that may be on the moon or Mars.

This self-portrait of NASA's Curiosity Mars rover shows the vehicle at the 'Mojave' site, where its drill collected the mission's second taste of Mount Sharp. The scene combines dozens of images taken during January 2015 by the MAHLI camera at the end of the rover's robotic arm.
