Under its Artemis program, NASA plans to send astronauts to the moon and a "sustainable" human presence by 2028.
Nokia's 4G network will allow astronauts to carry out a number of activities including making voice and video calls.Chris Rutter | Digital Camera Magazine | Getty ImagesNASA has selectedto build the first-ever 4G mobile network on Earth's natural satellite, the Finnish telecommunications firm announced Monday.
The company's U.S. industrial research arm, Bell Labs, is offering up its equipment to NASA to help build out the lunar network, with the aim of launching it in late 2022. Under its Artemis program, NASA plans to send astronauts to the moon by 2024 — for the first time in five decades — followed by a "sustainable" human presence by 2028.
The toughest cellular is the obvious choice. Asteroids, space debri, etc NO PROBLEM. Nokia says, “Hold my Beer!”
Why? Who's going to use it?
4G?
All that hard work paid off vonbrown14. Good job.
Sun Music ( 212) 🤭
4G in moon ya 🥶
225k dead Americans and we're putting cellular on the moon. nasa go home, you're drunk.
So I can’t wait to hear the next Verizon commercial, “Can you hear me now?” Lol!
Let’s not just destroy earth, let’s take its moon with us too.
Why not 5 g
Just 4G? In a few years, nobody will want to go. Lol
Conflict of interest much?
volmeeeezy6 to the stratosphere
Do you know there is 5G
I just wanna know when Verizon is gonna quit bottlenecking my data and give some better coverage
WHY! We have people starving on planet Earth!
So now my taxes are going to subsidize poor aliens in space?
I guess the moon never gets old.
Image that Trumps crooked a. Ss buddy.
Don’t we have 5G technology?
Puke news.......... Was this a Trump IQ test? Has Crammer taken over the online editorial review? What intellectual came up with the concept of 4g on the moon. Then you libel Nokia? The heads are shrinking at CNBC with this kind of malarkey.
Real headline: “Moon will have better cell coverage than parts of rural America”
And we still don't have coverage everywhere on earth.... WTF
What a waste of effort and money. The moon? Mars? We have other needs here on earth to address. Insane!
Enjoy
Seems like a good project to spend money on while the world is in crisis
This is really old news... 🙄
Is a shame Nasa does not have cure to COVID19 ! Spending trillions in useless research out there when they fucking still don't know complete knowledge of our Earth!
Oh why? I am sure there are better things to do with the money?
Who will use it there?
Why not 5G? lol 😂
Who gave anyone dominion over the moon
✔️
Dear NASA .We the people were not consulted on your 4G fantasies on the the moon. After all, its our lives you endanger if this hare brained idea doesn't go to plan (PS; there's always a glitch in the plan). Sincerely, concerned Earthling.
So waste money to put old technology on the moon?
And not Huawei?
Why not 5G, upgrading will be expensive. Ha!
I'll believe it when I see it.
Need more Nokia stonks
Seriously? And how will they do that? Only pepple that do not know wireless comms will believe it! Hogwash!!
Sweet lady Bitcoin! She is kill-ing-it! I love the Bitcoin supporters too. 'Sophisticated intellectuals' and 'Futurists' were two of my favorite descriptions! Let's go BITCOIN! 🔥
Okay why nokia ? Are they the leading company when it comes to building mobile networks? This seems like a backhand to our current US networks Furthermore if anyone is worried about “elites” invest in Nokia, google aka alphabet they have shares in space x, and invest in Tesla.
I hope we are not left on this earth alone! I hope people are not already settling on the moon big time.
So you’re saying I’ll be able to get pron. on my phone. On the moon... Count me in.

Nice advertisement. Paid?
Getting it ready for all the wealthy elites in the future I see

We live inside a parody
MoonPie Getting your own 4G network too?
I wish we had better connectivity and network on planet Earth ... first.
We dont even get 4G in some rural woodlands and national parks.
Will roaming rates apply?
1 bar 🙄
JoshMacuga Because how else will you get 'Eating History' on Mars
It would be nice if they got a good 4g network around Springdale Road in Cherry Hill, never mind a 5g network AT&T CherryHill
Like why
Sounds like NASA, planning for the past.
I can barely get good service at ATTStadium and they talking bout putting service on the moon?
That’s not a waste of money at all.. meanwhile you got homeless people in every city on the streets and I see people holding signs asking for money on many corners on this planet.. let’s focus on this planet
How will they get there ?
Gotta have that pornhub even on da moon.
And that is how Artemis' construction has begun
Oh stop it
Surely we’ll have 5g devices by then?
Any chance they could do Purley first? EE can’t manage it
No ones there to use it
Last time I was there I couldn’t stream Always Sunny so this is good news!
YESS LOONA WILL FINALLY BE ABLE TO POST INDIVIDUAL SELCAS
