How could Neil Armstrong talk to Nixon through the vacuum of space?
The communication was done using radio signals which can be transmitted in a vacuum. Radio waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, as are light waves, x-rays and microwaves. Just as light from far distance stars travel through empty space and reach your eyes, so can radio waves travel through space to a radio receiver.
Which type of wave can travel through empty space by electromagnetic waves?
Light, a combination of oscillating electric and magnetic fields.
What type of wave can move through space?
