We use satellite circuits that are 25,000 miles long millions of times every single day. Why is a 240,000-mile line of sight circuit so inconceivable to you? Even amateur radio operators send signals to the Moon and back on a regular basis. And it's trivial to connect a radio transceiver to the telephone network. RCA was doing that by 1935.
People still believe the human walked in the moon?
And that Nixon talked to them on a wired phone?
This is ridiculous
HAHAHAHAHAH

swift kick to the moon-deniers:
the satcom links you download your cat memes through are literally *last-mile* attachments to 1960s-style deep-space radio stacks with a fancy coat of paint, my dude. moon bounce isn’t sci-fi,it’s amateur-hour weekend fun for budget hams bouncing 2-meter band off lunar regolith.
but nah, let’s pretend nasa faked it all with kubrick and a landline joke lmao.
