Moon Bounce generally refers to shortwave radio transmission that is directed toward the Earth's moon, whether or not intentionally, and which is "bounced" off it's surface to return to Earth for reception. The propagation delay time between transmission and reception of the radio signal can be calculated using the speed of light and the known distance. Whereas, light travels approximately 186 thousand miles per second and the moon is approximately 239 thousand miles distant, it will therefore take a radio signal about 2.57 seconds to complete a journey from Earth to moon and back again (239,000 X 2 / 186,000).
