The Moon Is Getting High Speed Internet

Future astronauts landing on the moon will soon be able to place Candy Crush on their iPhone thanks to the Space Agency and MIT. After three years of work they have harnessed the power of laser beams to make high speed internet connection possible. At a distance of 384,633KM or 239,000 miles the connection speeds are estimated at 19.44Mbps upload and downloading at 622Mbps. I would have to say that’s pretty impressive. So while rural America still curses DSL and Cable know that we have blazing fast connection speeds coming to the Moon.
