Nokia is on its way to deploy the first cellular network on the Moon
[ad_1]
Nokia has been out of the mobile phone market long ago, but the Finnish company is still a pioneer in communications infrastructure technology. Nokia was not, at the forefront of creating the cellular network, so it is not surprising that it will soon become the first company to publish 4G network on the moon. As part of the intuitive Machines-2 mission (IM-2), Nokia will publish the first cellular network on the moon, which will help in the future exploration mode in the future.
A few days ago, Athens Lander, carrying the moon network in Nokia, raised the Spacex Falcon 9. The mission recently shared some photos, taken from ATHena Lander with a stable position, shipping energy, and radio telecommunications with the Houston Operations Center, Texas.

After about a week of launch, Athens is expected to enter a low orbit of the moon, and after completing the multiple revolutions around the moon, Athens will finally fall, and the IM-2 mission will start. The equipment that NOKIA plans to publish on the moon is the 4G/LTE network specially designed for the unique requirements of the moon's mission. Its main goal is to connect Athens to two compounds on the surface of the moon, MAPP ROOR and Micro Nova Hopper Done.

Soon after landing on the moon, Nokia will activate LSCS. The Finnish company will use the direct link to the axiom of the remote monitoring program, then it will run the "NIB" network integrated in Athens.
After all the examination, NIB will create a direct cell link to the device unit in the MAPP ROOR, which will remain in its garage on Athens. According to Nokia, this will be the first cellular call on the moon. Next, NIB will connect to the second lunar car, Micro Nova Hopper.
While MAPP ROPER and Hopper Moon surface explores the surface of the moon, Nokia will monitor and evaluate the network performance and make the necessary adjustments. All data collected by Nokia will be used to improve the network design and publish it for future missions.
Besides its main mission, the goal of the lunar surface communication system in Nokia (LSCS) is to prove that the cellular technology of communications can be used in future space tasks, so we hope everything will go according to the plan.
