Yes, and so did every other Apollo mission. The moon blocks the communication signals from being sent to Earth, and contact was only regained when the spacecraft began to emerge around the other side.
You listen to another radio or switch to the radio.
Turn the radio off and then while holding down numbers 1 and 6 turn the radio back on. This will display the 10 digit radio serial number 5 digits at a time. Each 5 digit code will flash 3 times alternately. If you do not have your radio code you will want to write these numbers down so that you can contact the dealer and obtain your radio code. After the radio serial code has cycled your radio should now read CODE prompting you for the radio code. Once you enter the 5 digit code the radio should work. Of course your presets have been wiped out so you'll need to reset those.
Yes. That's how Earth-bound controllers communicate with the Hubble Space Telescope, the Mars rovers, and with the various space probes still in service. It's also how the Apollo astronauts were able to communicate with Houston while they were on the Moon, and how the forgotten crew currently on the International Space Station are able to tell their colleagues on the ground exactly what they are doing and generally what's going on up there. And it's also how you're able to receive 92 channels of TV from a satellite repeater with that little dish on the garage roof.
Television speech are visual while radio speech are audio
Yes radio still exists, and will continue to for the forseeable future.
When Apollo 8 orbited the far side of the moon, the crew lost communication with Earth because radio signals were blocked by the moon. They became the first humans to see the "dark side" of the moon and took iconic photos of Earth rising over the lunar horizon.
Apollo 13 lost communication with Earth during a portion of the mission due to a malfunction in the Service Module caused by an oxygen tank explosion. The explosion damaged the spacecraft's systems, including the communication system, leading to the loss of contact. Crew and ground control worked together to troubleshoot and restore communication.
No.....the oxygen tanks were destroyed and while it was reaching near Earth it lost contact(which is normal) but this was a major problem because that was a very very crucial time with no fuel in Appolo !!
Apollo 8 did not blow up. Apollo 8 was the first manned spacecraft to orbit the moon. It returned to the Earth safely. Apollo 13 is the spacecraft that had an explosion while traveling to the moon.
An Apollo landing was a one-time mission where the spacecraft carried astronauts to the moon and back to Earth, while a space shuttle was a reusable spacecraft designed for multiple launches into Earth's orbit. Apollo missions focused on lunar exploration, while space shuttles were used for various purposes including satellite deployment, space station assembly, and scientific research in low Earth orbit.

Apollo 18 was not a launched mission. While the Apollo program was originally slated to run all the way up through Apollo 40 (which was to result in a lunar base), the program was eventually cut back drasticallym with the final mission being Apollo 17.
Apollo 11 was preceded by Apollo 9 which tested the combined Apollo Command/Service Module and the Lunar Module in Earth Orbit, and Apollo 10 which was the Dress Rehearsal for Apollo 11 taking the Lunar Module most of the way to the Moons surface but not landing.
The crew of Apollo 13 survived. While they encountered a near-fatal crisis during their mission to land on the moon in 1970, their spacecraft was able to return safely to Earth.
Apollo 13 had an explosion while encourse to the Moon. Luckily, the three astronauts inside were able to survive and make it back to Earth alive. The mission reminded people of the dangers of space exploration. The mission's story has been made into a movie, Apollo 13.
Apollo 13 was out of communication with mission control for approximately 38 minutes while it was on the dark side of the Moon. During this time, the spacecraft was beyond the Moon's horizon, preventing any radio signals from reaching Earth. This period was crucial as the crew executed critical maneuvers to return safely after their in-flight emergency.
Apollo 11 was a mission, Saturn V was a rocket. The Apollo 11 mission was the first Apollo mission to land man on the moon, it use a Saturn V rocket to take off from earth and get in to orbit.
