Nokia Network Neither the launch date nor the names and surnames of the participants of the Artemis-2 lunar mission are yet known, and business prospects for the development of our nearest space neighbor are already being discussed with might and main.
In particular, Lockheed Martin announced its intentions to become the first company to start making money on the Moon.
It is clear that in the interplanetary business you cannot do without reliable communication. Its organization will be handled by a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin — Crescent Space. The near-lunar communication network Parsec created by her with the help of a constellation of satellites will provide communication to the ground control center with astronauts on the Moon. It is assumed that they will receive information about their location from Parsec, as from a terrestrial GPS network. The first navigation satellites may appear in two years. The direct organization of the "world's first cellular network on the Moon" is entrusted to the Finnish company Nokia. It will be based on the LTE/4G system, which will be delivered to the Moon by a SpaceX rocket in the very near future. The network will receive energy from the base station. The base will provide a connection between the lander and the rover cruising on the surface. The company reported that LTE/4G equipment is capable of operating in extreme lunar conditions.
