In the early stages of space travel a chimp was sent to find out if humans to can survive.
The radio telescope at Parkes in mid-western New South Wales played a vital role in transmitting the first images of the moon landing of 1969.
The Parkes satellite, through its radio telescope in Australia, played a crucial role in receiving and broadcasting the footage of the moon landing in 1969. Its powerful receiver helped NASA's Mission Control to pick up a clearer signal from the Apollo 11 spacecraft and transmit the historic images to a global audience. This contribution was essential in ensuring that the world could witness this historic moment.
the parkes telescope in Australia gave the world images of the first moon landing.
No. This was just a tongue-in-cheek inclusion in that great movie "The Dish", which told the story of how the radio telescope at Parkes played a vital role in transmitting the moon landing of 1969. There is no truth to it. Australians like to poke fun at themselves in movies.
The moon has no effect on when the seasons change.
It depends on which module you mean. The Command Module pilot stays in orbit around the moon during the landing mission. The pilot performs scientific experiments and observations while there. They also play the critical role of docking with the Lunar Module when it leaves the moon. The Lunar Module pilot runs the computers and instruments on the Lunar Module and feeds critical information to the Commander during landing .

The chimpanzees role in the ecosystem is to help spread the seeds of the fruits they eat. This allows the fruit trees to germinate in areas that the trees would not normally have access to otherwise.

The Islamic calendar is a lunar calendar.
The Moon does infulence the ocean, as in moving from High to Low tide.
When the original Apollo missions were occurring many times when the astronauts were landing on the moon there was no direct line of sight to the moon. In these instances Australia would act as a relay post for the images and audio being sent back to the earth from the moon. Also NASA has numerous testing sites located in the outback of Australia where new rockets and vehicular designs are stress tested.
