Note that this character was created in 1963, during the years of the space race but before the actual Moon landing, so the work treated the Moon as a mysterious place.

The idea that there might be life on the Moon goes back to ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somnium_(novel) Somnium]]'', by Johannes Kepler, published in 1634 AD. Even earlier, there's ''Literature/TrueHistory'', by Lucian of Samosata (2nd century AD). The concept showed up in a lot of proto-SF. It should really have died with the development of high-power telescopes in the late 18th century, but hung around as at least the subject of spoofs. By the end of the 19th century, any astronomer could literally ''see'' that there was no life on the surface of the Moon, although some writers suggested that there was ''once'' life on the moon, leaving behind ruins for their heroes to explore.
