We can make robots that work in space. We can surely make things which work in this environment. Either heat them, or use thermal batteries for power when needed. Also might be an interesting application for compressed air.

Space is a way less challenging environment than mountains for robots, which are well equipped to handle, say, lack of air and gravity, but poorly equipped to handle rough and rocky terrain and lots of gravity.
