Perhaps you think we are incapable of doing industrial chemistry and engineering at a distance of 238,857 miles, resulting in a round signal trip of around 5 seconds, between sending a telepresence command and receiving video confirmation. Think ASIMO. driven by telepresence that needs no computing power, just commands, transmitted by radio signal which would take 2.56 seconds to get from the earth to the moon, a mechanical human simulacrum on the moon, being controlled from the earth with an operator wearing a special suit.
With energy and knowledge of chemistry you can do anything, even maybe reverse entropy.
