L1 is 61500km above surface of moon
so what is projection of L1 on Moon - where is it, crudely?
disregarding nutation and all?
Tranquillitatus?
Perhaps a peak to anchor the moonstalk to?
What are the dynamics of a moonstalk to L1 as opposed to an earthstalk?

the L5 song (chorus)
Home, home on Lagrange,
Where the space debris always collects,
We possess, so it seems, two of Man's greatest dreams:
Solar power and zero-gee sex.

given that the moon keeps one face to the earth; I would assume that the
only "selenestationary" orbit is at the earth it self!

L1 and L2 also fit the bill.

where could you site an orbiting moon base so that it was stationary
above
the surface?
