When Richard Nixon made his phone call to the moon there was no delay in conversation.
it takes over a 1.5 seconds for light to travel from the moon to earth.(speed of light)
how come Nixon voice(sound) traveled faster than the speed of light.Confused?

For the same reason that Betfair rotate horse race positions in a formed market.

Tin can, val doonican radiation belt.

There’s only the rare minerals there that means China and the US have now a new Space race to harvest them as is happening here!
Oh and Pump formed the Space Force in his first term not for threats against Aliens but to protect the wealth waiting to be harvested there! Wink

Brass neck I didn’t see it before my time but I’ve wondered how they managed reception back then when I can’t even get a line in my house here in the countryside, oh the three foot thick walls of this old house!

Motorola sure benefitted from being used back then! Their Razor flip phone in the 90’s was something like out of Startrek Love

By the way Anne the chaser said once on there that the Americans DID land despite claims that they didn’t because the Russians were tracking them with satellites and it’s documented.

You’ll have to call IT guy for any other tech issues I’m afraid. Grin

By the way I haven’t checked Anne’s statement or looked at when the first satellites were launched, maybe my memory of what she said is incorrect on that technical aspect? But I do recall she said the Russians were tracking and it’s why they threw the towel in after.

OP wonders why there was no phone delay between Nixon and the moon.

If he bothered to look at the clip on YouTube, he would see there was a gap of 5 or 6 seconds between Nixon stopping and the astronaut starting to talk.

Re Brassneck's perennial complaints about rotating horses, although Betfair does this sometimes, my guess is his actual problem is Betfair's screen re-drawing after a bet is placed in order to add details of the bet.

This means that while horses' relative order is maintained, their absolute position on the screen changes so that anyone making rapid bets under the pub table has a high chance of backing the wrong horse *after the first bet*.

The more interesting point about the phone call to the moon is that President Nixon said he was in the "Oval Room". Nowadays they call it the "Oval Office". When did it change? Why did it change? Did aliens change it?

According to the Washington Post the day after Nixon made the call (see image below), the President was in the Yellow Oval Room....



Here's a more recent image of the Yellow Oval Room....

OK. Cancel the alien invasion alert.

Of vastly more importance to every living person on the planet..

There was no delay whatsoever to the huge monetary expansion/printing orgy of the US dollar and decimation of it's purchasing power when Tricky Dicky suddenly severed the final umbilical cord to Gold in 1971....

and for those of you who don't pay attention - still goes on to this very day to much larger numbers especially the last 5 years..

You aware of the minerals that are to be extracted from the moon aren’t you Ram? Also that the Space Force was formed during his first term?

Love the ignorance in Tea leaf’s post which I responded to, (thinks the moon is just a rock with no relevance to life on earth!) Crazy
