Nokia's 25-Minute Moon Mission
In March 2025, Nokia successfully operated a 4G cellular network on the surface of the Moon for 25 minutes, despite the system shutting down due to power depletion caused by a failed landing mission, "IM-2," carried out by Intuitive Machines. This is the first time such a network has been operated on the Moon’s surface, aiming to develop a communication infrastructure to support future space missions, especially with the integration of the "Network In a Box" system onto the "Athen" lander. Although the mission was not completed fully due to the spacecraft’s instability on its side and issues with recharging the batteries, it demonstrated the system’s capability to operate over a short period. Future plans include integrating communication technologies into astronaut suits for the "Artemis 3" mission scheduled for 2027, to facilitate communication during upcoming lunar expeditions.
