Company says broadband system will be established on the lunar surface in 2022

Struggling to get a phone signal at home on planet Earth? Perhaps you will have better luck on the moon.

Nasa aims to return humans to the moon by 2024 and dig in for a long-term presence there under its Artemis programme. Nokia said the first wireless broadband communications system in space would be built on the lunar surface in late 2022, before humans make it back there. The network will give astronauts voice and video communications capabilities, and allow telemetry and biometric data exchange, as well as the deployment and remote control of lunar rovers and other robotic devices, according to the company.
