Monitored by He Who Remains[]
The moon was one of the places being observed and monitored by He Who Remains, along with the rest of the Solar System.[1]
Home of the Inhumans[]
- "I always thought you guys had people hiding on the moon."
- ―Yo-Yo Rodriguez to Phil Coulson[src]
Centuries ago, an Inhuman community abandoned Earth and colonized a small area of the Moon. This community named their society Attilan.
Since the 20th century, humans were using their technology to study the Moon and succeeded in sending a team of astronauts to the surface. During the 21st Century, humans were relying on robotic drones to study and map out the surface unaware of the Inhuman inhabitants.[2]
Luring Kalkartho[]
Stephen Strange and Wong projected their astral forms to the Moon and cast the Bonds of Baelzar in order to lure Kalkartho away from Earth. The plan worked and Strange started to banish the creature, but Wong passed out avoiding its attacks, so Strange brought him back to his body in the New York Sanctum.[3]
Conspiracy Theories[]
- "I thought Captain America was on the moon."
- ―GRC Member[src]
Following the Battle of Earth, Steve Rogers vanished from the public eye. Though many assumed that he died during the battle, a number of outlandish theories were formed as to his whereabouts, with some saying that he was now watching over the Earth from a secret base on the Moon.[4]
