Just an initial reaction to the report of a large monolith on the moon... of course I immediately think of Stanley Kubrick. Maybe the Shining wasn't a confession that he had faked footage of the moon landing, like some think. And the monolith from 2001... I've heard people suggest it represents his medium of influence: the movie screen. But these theories seem to fall short. Now I want to watch both movies again... 😃

I'm a huge Kubrick fan and both of those movies are classics even if S. King didn't like the Shining. My favorite Kubrick film is Full Metal Jackets though.
I saw a decent documentary about how Kubrick was recruited to fake the moon landings. Perhaps some of the Moon Landing footage was faked but I do believe that the Apollo missions were real.
I'm really excited that China is sending a mission to the far side of the moon but I'm not very optimistic that they'll share their findings with the public, unfortunately.
