Hi, While we are on the subject of the Moon and looking back at missions - take a look at the web pages I have forwarded. Should prove quite a talking point in terms of our hobby - ionosphere and radio communications on and around the Moon. Regards Ken Eaton GW1FKY

Suddenly ham radio on the moon looks a whole lot more interesting. New propagation experiments to try to characterise the lunar ionosphere's RF properties. Only trouble is getting there.

I just got a flash is it possible the moon bounce signal where reflected on this "ionosphere" instead of the moon surface or both or is it the moon libration signal often reported by moon bouncer a kind of signal mix the one reflected over the surface and the one reflected by the ionosphere back to the moon surface working against each other?

This could be one of many interesting questions to try and answer. :)
