The Moon Needs Decent Wireless Coverage: Argotec and JPL's Relay Satellites Could Deliver Bandwidth for More than 90 Missions

Earth's moon is the target of more missions than at anytime since the Apollo era, by both space agencies and commercial entities. NASA, for example, has plans to visit the moon using both robots and humans, and is also considering—with international collaborators—a small orbiting outpost in the next decade. This facility, known as the Lunar Gateway, would store supplies, host visiting astronauts, and facilitate communication between the moon and Earth.
