Zusammenfassung:The benefits of conducting SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) from the moon are examined, and it is suggested that crater SAHA, a 100-km diameter area surrounded by a 3000-m high wall, would provide a site that is ideally suited for a SETI facility. A proposal is made for the protection of this site for the next 20-30 years, and the importance of support for this proposal by CASPAR is emphasized. (AIAA)
