That’s because the answer isn’t in watts. It’s in watts per square meter per Hz.

Calculate it yourself. The SEFD is how much signal doubles detector temp. It is intensity per degree in Janskys (Jy). One Jy is 10^-26 J/m^2/Hz.

You asked for sensitivity of a radio telescope, which is degraded by detector temperature (which contributes to noise). So you must specify temp of detector and frequency of signal to be detected.

No, that's general, and cannot be avoided. You have to find a region and 
be ready for compromises. An antenna is just a low noise amplifier.

It's better to say how much better a radiotelesope dish is from a simple dipole detector on a cell tower. 

The biggest dish used during Apollo 11 was the 210 foot military dish in the US, which NASA used during landing. Which was good because for some seconds the rotation of the LM during landing lost them their directional antenna lock (from the LM-- this is a hand cranked device at the edge of the LM with a gain of 20 dB = factor of 100, but it has to be pointed at Earth) and in the gaps they were operating on one 15 watt S-band omnidirectional transmitter on the LM picked up by a 210 foot dish on the ground. The frequency was 1.3 GHz. Had they lost telemetry altogether they would have had to abort the landing, and the 85 foot dishes were not up the job when the LM high gain went out.

1.3 GHz is 23 cm = 0.75 feet. 

Large antenna gain = {4pi[210 feet/0.75]}^2 times antenna factor (usually about 0.5) =  6.2 x 10^6 = 68 dB

You get further distance from the LM tranmitter working nominally at 15 watts RF output vs. a mobile phone at only 3 watts max. So 10 log [15/3] = 7 dB.

Okay, the total you get from the big dish and LM bigger transmitter is 68 + 7 dB = 75 dB. Are you paying attention?  This increases your distance of pickup by 6 dB per doubling of distance, or 2^[75/6] = 58,000. 

So there you are. If you can get a link with your cell phone 5 miles from your cell tower, the extra factor of 58,000 in distance from a big dish and a bit more power gets you all the way to the Moon. 

If you want to read about the actually com system for the Apollo program you can do it:

Dish parabola antennas are focusing the power in near proximity, that's 
why are used in reception, not transmission. Those stupid umbrellas in the 
pictures indicated the moon landing was fake. Buy a brain.

Buy a library card, nymshifting troll. Lookup "reciprocity antenna theorum". An antenna works the same both ways (recieve or transmit), just like your flashlight or headlight does.

I'll never convince you, who have no math. But I proved that a 210 foot dish, which as a gain of 62 million = 68 dB at 1.3 GHz can make a 15 watt omnidirectional transmitter on the Moon look like a 3 watt cell phone 4 to 5 miles away.

If you used 3 GHz the gain rises to 75 dB and now 3 watts on the Moon gives the same signal as a 3 watt cell phone 4 miles away. You could easily pick up a cell phone on the Moon, particularly since cell-->tower distance are typically 22 to 45 miles, not 3 miles. If you cell tower picks up 3 watt 3 GHz cell phones 21 miles away, that's 7 times farther than 3, which means your dish can be 210/7 = 30 feet. That's not that big.

All this assumes NO directional antenna on the moon. With the LM directional you get a boost of 100 times in the signal, which means your dish diameter can shrink by a factor of 10. Now you can hear the Moon with just a 3 foot dish.

You just display your ignorance and a severe lack of proper education. You 
are a proven imbecile, an wikipedia freak, a library card owner. A "self-

Besides NASA three international space agencies have explored asteroids (much farther than the Moon):  CNSA (China), ESA (Europe) and JAXA (Japan). USSR got pictures back from Venus and a number of probes, and even a brief single from their problem to Mars (Mars 3-- the Soviets have a Mars curse). 

The ESA even built the Huygens Titan lander which relied for a photos from the surface of Titan on relay from Cassini in Orbit.

Looks like most of mankind (not just NASA) is in on the "plot" to say radio waves can't go farther than the Moon. For not only are 5 major space-faring national entities in on the plot (far more of you count European countries) but also antenna-theory students at hundreds of universities. 

My lack of a proper education, you say? And were was your EE antenna theory class? And how is the entire globe and their various space programs and EE radio engineers fooled? The Chinese landed a Lunar Rover, just as example. Maybe it wound up on Giligan's Island and they didn't realize it.

As I can read, the thread is about the mirror on the moon vs parabolic 
antennas in focusing the power of the signal reflected by them. "Antenna 
theory" is merely related to the cable guys. In academia it starts with 
"HF theory.." and something like that.

In academia, antenna theory will be part of your EE radio design class. I"m sure you can get some version less useful and practical in a physics class. 

Cable guys install cable. Antenna theory is used by any engineer in free space communications, including all those working with satellites and the deep space network.

You just gave another proof on your incompetencies and lack of education. 
You don't even know what is all about in universities. Nor in industry. 
And what a cable guy has to deal with. You have to be extreme 
unemployable, due to the above reasons. Judging on what you wrote, of 
course.

If you're looking for a fight, bugger off. I have an advanced degree, a nice job, and a 401(k).

We've been discussing whether radio communications with the Moon and space probes beyond the Moon is possible. SO far, you have added zip to the discussion. Other people here have discussed actual Apollo equipment (antennas, power, frequencies used), link budgets to the Moon in dB, and so on. You have put in nothing. You got anything substantive to say? Say it.

You're wasting your time, arguing with the nymshifter troll. Emphasis on 
the word 'troll'. Don't let him sucker you into the argument again once 
he shifts nyms again and you think he's someone new.

What arguing, you stupid troll. Your dear friend lack understanding the 
elementary in HF, antennas and data communications. You both are stupid
