The moon face in the VDNH building can be found after you enter into the big multi-story complex after speaking to the robot behind the desk. It's located on the first level, just above the ground floor, and is difficult to miss., but you will need to defeat a lot of robots in this room before safely getting there. 

Once you find the moon face, you notice three holes where the eyes would be, indicating three missing Moon Cannisters. Here are the locations.
