  • Abstract
    Of the many engineering disciplines that mankind had to master before Neil Armstrong could take his famous "one small step" on to the Moon 40 years ago, few were as critical as radio communications. Radio communication between Apollo astronauts and Earth was easy. It\´s in future missions to the Moon and Mars when things will get complicated, as Juan Pablo Conti discovers.
