I'm familiar with AAA tracking. What has infrared/radar to do with live video stream broadcasting/downlinking transmissions on the "moon"?
And what has radar tracking to do with Video Transmitting equipment left behind on the moon and strapped to the Lunar Rover (Golf Cart?)
You understand this Apollo 17 footage was reputedly taken from the "Lunar Rover" left behind on the "moon"?

And how was all that live analog color video broadcasting from the moon powered? With a round trip time from earth and back in 1.5 seconds?
I mean what type of battery technology c. 1969 was powering up a live broadcasting UPLINK (and tracking downlink receiver?)
We did not have the battery tech to do that back then.
We barely have it now.
And what type of battery technology was powering all this broadcasting by remote control video cameras and equipment?
Don't forget these were not camcorders... NASA says they transmitted the video signal to huge tracking stations who recorded the images on video reels. No VHS yet, only 3/4" tape.
Where is the battery power for this TV UPLINK broadcasting station on the Lunar Rover?
And finally, since you say you've worked with satellites, can you please provide a live video stream from the earth to just one of the thousands upon thousands of satellites orbiting the earth? I mean, it's space junk. But we never see it...
Can you give us a photo of a satellite from the earth? I mean a real photo, like one you'd take yourself with a Nikon.
Thanks.
“since you say you’ve worked with satellites, can you please provide a live video stream from the earth to just one of the thousands upon thousands of satellites orbiting the earth? I mean, it’s space junk. But we never see it...

This web sight will tell you when the next time the international space station (ISS) will traverse your part of the planets night sky and other satellites as well.
It will also track the planets and stars with math that took humanity using God given (breathed life into ) gifts and talents of mathematics and reason centuries to figure out. Isaiah 42:5
Math, Science and a Diety (God) are not incompatible.
Please start your readings here my friend.

The ISS is big enough to clearly see with a good pair of binoculars. I’ll ask one of my former co-workers to ask an astronaut to wave as they pass overhead so you know it’s real and not all an act. She’ll be heading up there in a few weeks if our relations with the Russians don’t completely break down. All joking aside about waving, you can clearly see the ISS with a good pair of binoculars in reasonable enough detail to remove your doubts. Who you gonna beleive, some photshopped photo from the internet or your own eyes. You do beleive in Galileo’s optics. If not we’re done here.
“Line of sight radio or microwave towers over the ocean in 1969... specifically from Australia to Texas in half a second or less?”
You’ve heard of ships and islands I assume. I won’t discuss P3 Orion comms because I’d have to kill you afterwards. See civilian operators. I’ve had a tour of NOAA’s.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_P-3_Orion#Civilian_operators
Microwaves travel at 3 x 10^8 m/s. Assuming a circumference of 24900 miles, a microwave signal can theoretically travel around the entire planet in 0.125 seconds. That’s 12 and one half one hundredths of a second for those of you from Rio Linda.
So moon to Australia and all the way around the world twice could occur in less than 1.5 seconds. That would include every television on the planet soon there after using AT&T’s microwave infrastructure. The command from texas to the moon through Australia to get the whole process started would start 1.325 seconds before time 0 or ignition. The rest of the process is automatic as far as texas is concerned.
My son works with people who calculate the lead time necessary to send commands in very long wave frequencies to a satellite that is now well beyond Pluto to insure that events occur when necessary. They even re-installed the operating system and rebooted the on-board computers from greater than 8.2 billion Kilometers away. ( it’s not windows!) He’s smarter than me, much smarter. My wife is to but don’t tell her I said that. I’d never hear the end of it.
“What has infrared/radar to do with live video stream broadcasting/downlinking transmissions on the “moon”?”
It involves the automatics tracking and focus of the camera thus eliminating the need for two way down and uplink in real time making FM signals for audio and video at 3 x 10^8 M/s through 284000 kilometers of space in less than 1.2 seconds possible.
I assume you also believe then that we didn’t have batteries to run the rover either, Duh. I assume that you also know that electricity can be produced chemically in realtime, in a small package. It expensive, dangerous, explosive and hazardous but compared to the risk of going to the frickin moon itself it’s an acceptable risk. The resulting carcinogens we’re left on the moon. I hope that’s Ok with you.

On December 24, 1968, in what was the most watched television broadcast at the time, the crew of Apollo 8 read in turn from the Book of Genesis as they orbited the Moon. The Bible used was provided by the Gideons. Bill Anders, Jim Lovell, and Frank Borman recited Genesis chapter 1, verses 1 through 10 verbatim, using the King James Version text. Anders read verses 14, Lovell read verses 58, and Borman read verses 910, concluding the transmission.
William Anders
We are now approaching lunar sunrise, and for all the people back on Earth, the crew of Apollo 8 has a message that we would like to send to you.
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.[4]
James Lovell
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.[4]
Frank Borman
And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called the Seas: and God saw that it was good.
And from the crew of Apollo 8, we close with good night, good luck, a Merry Christmas and God bless all of you, all of you on the good Earth.
Don’t sound like a bunch of Godlessness to me. Obama godless probably. Allah will decide that one (LOL)
