can you do this but with radar?
>>65307885for what purpose?
>>65307885Too late, been done.
>>65307885you literally have your answer on the wikipedia article from which you took that picture from
>>65307919>wikipedia article from which you took that picture fromHas wiki taken a nose dive?
Dont you just bounce the radar off the ionosphere?
>>65307885>Put radar on the moon>Point it at Earth>Turn it on>Yep, its still there
>>65307885No. The moon is not real.
>>65307885the R in RADAR stands for Radio so... yes
>>65307983how come i see ti every night
>>65307885Uh...yes? Why? To measure the distance to the moon?Unless...are you trying to get a radar contact with a MOON BOUNCE?! Bro, the signal clarity is going to be through the fucking Floor.
>>65312287>the return indicates that yes, there is a planetary body thereI dunno, seems pretty good to me.
>retarded niggers doesn't know about moon based alpha hq stationed there
>>65312304Nah, I'm thinking OP wants to bounce radar off the moon to detect something on Earth. Only thing that makes sense.
>>65312444I get that but the return is going to be so shit it's only useful for detecting the Earth itself. "Yep, radar says the planet I'm standing on us still there" is the only logical reason I can think of to do this.
>>65307885Moon? That would be extremely stupid.You can just bounce it off the atmosphere. That's what over-the-horizon radars do.
>>65307940Nose dive? That ms paint drawing is pure sovl! If anything it's improved.
>>65312601>ms paint drawingIt's obviously hand drawn.
>>65311100>i see ti every night>This nigga planet do not have moon phasesFucking Reptilians from Alpha Draconis finally exposed themselves posting here
>>65307885>turn on radar>jup, the moon is still there>jup the earth is still thereThat's about the resolution we're talking about here.>>65312595Even those are dubious. Maybe those can pick up a supercarrier in the middle of the ocean, but anything smaller with a more noisy background is going to be a struggle.
>>65312705OTHs are not meant to pick up things on the surface and there is nothing dubious about them (unless we're talking about soviet designs)
>>65307885yes but even in UHF thats like a 250 db loss in microwave thats probably far more
>>65312287>>65312444>>65312595>>65312705Here now, Earth Moon Earth is a perfectly reasonable contesting method, and one hell of a flex in the amateur radio community. Especially if you can get one of the cool nations, so you can gloat about it even further.
>>65312484This is true. OP is very silly. >>65312705Not to mention the error bars. The ionosphere is uneven and constantly shifts and churns like an ocean of air. That supercarrier could be Miles away from where you're seeing it.

>>65312287>>65312304>>65312595>>65312705>resolution Just put multiple reflectors on the moon and make it a huge phased array. Like on a F-22, just a little bigger.
>>65307940Given how Wikipedia is so touchy about copyright nowadays, I think the eventual plan is to replace every image with MS paint drawings.
