NASA has awarded Nokia the US $14.1 million to deploy a 4G cellular network on the moon.
The grant is part of $370 million worth of contracts signed under NASA's "Tipping Point" selections, meant to advance research and development for space exploration.
"The system could support lunar surface communications at greater distances, increased speeds, and provide more reliability than current standards," NASA noted in its contract award announcement.
