What's likelyhood of building a VLBI in space?

Hi: I'm wondering what the likelyhood of maybe having a couple of nodes of an
orbiting antennae out in space. And then sending the combined signal to a central one, like on the Moon and then back to Earth to be processed?

Would this VLBI method of combining a signal for radio telescopes work in space and a slight varying distance could be countered for (as compared here on the ground) so that this would work?

I tried asking NASA here in the States (for submitting). And they said I'd have to be a solicitor. And I'm not sure how that works.

"Wireless"

I do of course mean "wireless" here, and it'd have to have a power source
I guess for the duration.
