Once you think about it, it becomes obvious.

With all the technological advancement we made, they are still not able to put a HD 360° camera on the moon, filming the earth 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Think how nice it would be to be able to watch the clouds over the earth where you live from the moon, then go outside and watch the same clouds, confirming that the feed they give you is accurate. Or watch the day and night cycle as the earth spins slowly from the moon, then go outside and see that as it gets dark, you are in the terminator line on the feed from the moon. Solar panels and batteries have gotten so good today, that it should be no issues powering a camera and a transmitter, and store the excess power for the month that the moon is in darkness. And while the moon is in darkness, we could see all the stars from the moon, would not that be something. But no, of course this will never happen, as the moon landing is fiction.
I can also mention that it is said that the earth is 4 times as big as the moon. So seeing the earth from the moon, the earth should be 4 times as big as the moon looks from the earth. So we should be able to see some pretty good details of the earth, from the moon, with a modern HD camera.
Fly a bunch of solar panels to the moon, then once a man is put on the moon, as they can totally do that, he can put those solar panels together, powering a live feed from the moon. Easy. Get on it NASA.
