lunar orbit is the time delay however, after seeing
what was accomplished with the semi-autonomous truck
race last year, perhaps that delay can be
circumvented. AIwould certainly be helpful, but even without it, one might still be able to teleoperate as far out as the moon. SSI did some experiments with little remote controlled vehicles mounted with video cameras, and with a signal delay time added to the setup. They reported that with some practice, one could learn to think ahead sufficiently to operated them fairly well. Like most everything, it was an acquired skill.
