The catch-22 is the influx of lunar traffic will create some noise interference on the "dark side" of the moon. Still less than that on earth though.
> The lunar far side is permanently shielded from the radio signals generated by humans on Earth. During the lunar night, it is also protected from the Sun. These characteristics make it probably the most “radio-quiet” location in the whole solar system as no other planet or moon has a side that permanently faces away from the Earth. It is therefore ideally suited for radio astronomy.
Maybe we need to treat this as a "pristine natural resource" and put some treaties in place now where we agree to limit how much we "pollute" this area with RF signals, before it's too late?
There is no 'dark side of the moon'. During a new moon the dark side is the front side. At a full moon it's the back side. You probably don't want to be doing optical astronomy during the middle of the day on the moon, and you probably don't want to be doing radio astronomy while being pelted by the solar wind. Much of both is taken care of if you're doing it near midnight on the lunar day.
