The moon is a pretty terrible backup for Civilization.

A lot of the things (majority) that would eradicate life on earth would also eradicate life on the moon.

Someone else asked this as well but I haven't seen a good answer: what scenario destroys moon and earth but leaves Mars fine? I can think either of stuff that only impacts earth like meteors, nukes etc on one hand and issues like a supernova or a stray planet coming through the solar system on the other hand.
