I was hoping they were using Venus bounce to get the signals back to earth!

From what I remember they parked a relay sat in one of the "L" points.

Sorry if off-topic but I have a burning question and thought I'd ask
here...
So far I haven't come across any info about how the earth stations are
communicating with the rover on the far side of the moon. I always assumed that once anything went to the far side, comms was essentially down, plus the far side of the moon always remain the far side. So, is there a "mother-ship" that is acting as a reflector or relay ? Just curious...
Thanks, Umesh k6vug
