This is no joke It's been a while since anyone standing on the Moon needed to communicate with Earth - the last crewed mission took place in 1971 But recently we've had renewed interest in lunar missions, especially since the Moon is viewed by many as a stepping stone on our way to Mars. And one German startup aiming for our rocky satellite has announced they will set up a kind of cell tower once they get there..... http://www.sciencealert.com/this-german-startup-wants-to-put-a-mobile-phone-tower-on-the-moon
If they do build it, I'm sure some NIMBY alien will crawl out of a moon crater and start to complain about it
