And where's your originality? The idea of moon- based telescopes of various types (including on the dark side, to screen out terrestrial interference) is widespread both within and without science fiction.

Just imagine - spend trillions on an ultra-sensitive radio telescope, only to discover that every civilization in the visible universe broadcasts the same kind of crap we do.
