but it's about -200° in the shade

NASA wants to build a giant radio telescope on the far side of the moon inside a 3 mile wide crater. Cool.

yes, but it can get up to 260* F on the moon. That's NOT cool.

Yes, but it's a vacuum so heat transferance is real low... No humidity

"Far side" would be more accurate. It's not always dark.

I haven't done electronics for space but wouldn't you have other problems?

coils, fans, vents? all solar powered?
CoachSpeak

Coils? Fans? Vents? No air. Nothing to conduct the heat. Right?

There is still gravity.

Gravity conducts heat?

I think empty space conducts heat. Based on the sci fi movies I've seen, if I jump out of my spaceship into empty space

With gravity you could build an atmosphere...

Probably sends to a satellite and then relays to esrth

Perhaps it’ll get out of the planning stage by 2035?

We won’t make it that far. Not with the current destruction.

We'll be able to hear the UFOs lock their doors as they fly past earth.
