I wonder if a huge structure of carbon tubes could work. Anyway, the Moon's elliptical orbit would create a lot of slack half the time.

even if the string was unbreakable the lack of positive tension would simply pull it away with the differential speed and rotation of the moon
it would likely end up in space
