Radio waves are not conducted. They propagate. They do not need a medium through which to propagate. They just move.

Why can radio waves travel through space but sound waves can not?

Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium to travel through, allowing them to propagate through the vacuum of space. In contrast, sound waves are mechanical waves that require a medium, such as air or water, to transfer energy and vibrations. Space is a vacuum, lacking the necessary medium, which is why sound waves cannot travel through it.

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.
