And how did that signal get from the tracking station in Australia and to Houston and back for the “return” TV uplink back to the “moon” in 1.5 seconds?
LOL again.
We STILL have lag on our cell phones today!
And what kind of batteries ran all this equipment on the moon?
And if Alaskans couldn't get live News reports in 1972 (as per Sarah Palin’s memoirs) but had to wait a week for the video reels to get flown in, how did Houston get relays from the Australian tracking station “live” to enable the remote from the Lunar Rover that was left on the “moon”?
LOL.
There were problems with live international transmissions in 1985 during the infamous Bowie/Jagger video hook up during Live Aid... and this was with the best engineers and recording technicians in the world! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_Aid
Your post reminds me of the time here on FR, when I was discussing how GIs after WWII had the theory about Ike's implication in the strange death of Patton after a 15mph car accident... and some FReeper reprimanded me for even daring to discuss this by telling me “his grandfather was Patton's chauffeur”! and that I didn't know what I was talking about...
While I cannot teach you how to be a telecommunications technician who worked in the field for forty years, I can provide you with some links to check out.
This is from Wikipedia providing some information regarding the Earth link with the Moon and Australia and then the up/down links between Australia and California. You will note the path from California to Houston is on the AT&T network I proved previously. The way that the signal gets sent between Parkes or Honeysuckle Creek Earth stations and Sidney OTC is across the Australian Postmaster-General's Department (PMG) facilities.

What really saddens me is that you create your own straw men and then proceed to knock them down with glee. You're the only only one that is obsessed with delay. I have worked with communications delay on a day-to-day basis and it isn't some magic barrier you seem to believe it is. You have delay, you compensate for it or overcome it. You have been told over and over that on the Apollo 15 and 16, the engineers could not get the video timed to get the boost of the LEM but finally did on the last mission.
What my mind cannot wrap around is that you cannot believe in God or Jesus, if men walked on the Moon or his creation is a sphere. Jesus spoke Aramaic and the Bible was written in ancient Greek, then translated for us into Latin and then into the King's English of Shakespeare's times, yet you quibble over your understanding of the word firmament from the Old Testament. /smh
Also, the NASA you rail against now, is not the same NASA from fifty years ago. There was no works project, no Muslim outreach, no pork barrel spending, just a tremendous national pride in the Greatness of America. MAGA and stop being a schmuck.
