Using this very long power extension cable you were able to extend this telephone so that it can be placed inside the house while still being connected to the big antenna.
You are very proud of your achievement.

But you are wondering if it will continue working.
Not because of the cable.
You are sure that this cable is more than ok for this purpose.
But the moon is moving on the sky.
Will the antenna follow its movement?
Can it do this at all?
And what when the moon falls below the horizon?
Or maybe the antenna is pointed at a geostationary satellite?
Or something else?
Or maybe the big antenna is just a distraction?

You don't know it.
You can't know it.
The only thing you can do is to wait patiently until the telephone rings once again.
