Actually, I do have a suggestion. Most lunar environments, as scientific
observation has informed us, are somewhat lacking in breathable oxygen.
Since they don’t have an atmosphere to speak of. Thus, I recommend helmets
and airtanks for your pilots, at least while they are outside the cockpit. A
neat little additional detail would be a place to store such equipment while
they are inside.
(I suppose its possible that this ice harvester is for general lunar
environments, not just Earth’s own moon, and other moons may have breathable
atmospheres, depending on size. It’s only a suggestion after all.)

I was wondering how long it would take before someone commented on that :-)
My thought was that inside the cabin, the harvester would provide the oxygen.
Outside, the operators would need an environmental suit. The photos with the
operators outside the harvester were taken inside the assembly facility... Yeah,
that’s it...
