How is this even remotely possible?

At the distance, with the technology it has, the transmission rate is 160 bps - 16 bytes, I figure with the checksums.

So, imagine watching a 1960's teletype printer. That's the speed at which data is streaming.

16 baud? When I was in USAF, in 1986 I was at Yokota AB, Japan. My work center had a teletype that was hooked up to an undersea cable directly to PACAF HQ in Honolulu. It ran at 16 baud. In those days I could type much faster.

Can you give examples of other forms of technology like say a 28.8k modem, up to the current data speeds of 4g/5g how long the signals would take at the same distance? Thanks
