Can you please eli5 how Nixon was able to speak to the astronauts on the moon from a landline in the oval office 60 years ago?

Pretty much the same way Houston was able to hear what the astronauts were saying. We can transmit and receive radio waves from a very long distance.
If you have the right gear and some huge satellite dish you can send signals to the Moon.
Therefore, if you can plug a phone to “something” that converts the signal into a signal that can be sent to the Moon with a satellite dish and you can do the same when receiving signals, you’re good to go. That’s basically what happened.
