A SETI observatory on the moon was impossible due to costs. Now, commercial spaceflight is dramatically reducing the cost of bringing a payload to the moon and that is beginning to fuel a renaissance in lunar astronomy.
I feel like Carl Sagan would have gotten very excited about something like this.

Hey, thanks for sharing this post! I think this would also be a good fit for our space community, beehaw.org/c/space – I’d encourage you to cross-post this into that community as well!
Hope we get to see it!
The entire dark side should be a preserve for radio astronomy. There's no other activity that can't be done somewhere else, it's a no-brainer.
