Ceres isn't an asteroid. It's a dwarf planet. It's not a pile of rubble. It's big enough to be round from its own gravity. The only object in the asteroid belt with that status, actually.

Yea, but they considered that and planned accordingly. The entire station is underground and the surface is heavily reinforced.
