But the Leonids always come at the same time of year and from the same

the horizon.
Sounds like an idea, but not really needed if you are under the
regolith or in a lava tube.
However, the bottom of that polar crater may be a trifle chilly...
They could always add some Sun tracking mirrors to reflect some
sunlight.
