Quickly the Earth radared back, saying they have heard his voice clearly and could understand his words.
That turned the trick.
At this, he told his listeners on Earth that he was going to put on the chieftain of the white tribe from the dark side of the Moon.
They radared back asking him to hold off the experiment for fifteen minutes. This would give them time to alert all radio stations of the world that they too might be on the beam and broadcast directly to the peoples of the world what we were sending from their Moon, which they had so long considered dead and uninhabitable.
When we realized what had just been done, what our brilliant companion and copilot had accomplished in this field, our rejoicing knew no bounds. But, being Earthmen, we wished for still more. Now that we were going to be able to send our Moon friends' voices through space and have them heard on Earth, we wanted to also send their pictures, but we doubted whether the small televising instruments we had with us would send pictures from here to the Earth.
After fifteen minutes were up, contact was again established with the Earth and the white chieftain was introduced. He spoke in his native tongue to the peoples of the world. When he got through talking, we asked him if his dancers would dance and chant as they had when entertaining us earlier in the evening.
This they did.
After they finished, the black chieftain who had accompanied us on our trip, was introduced and he, too, talked in his native tongue to the peoples of the Earth.
Then each one of us talked to our Earth friends in our language, which they understood. We told them of our plans for the next day when we were going to make a flight over the northeast territory, and we promised, since this was a success thus far, that we would try to broadcast on our flight and give a description of the territory.
The Earth station with which our contact was made wanted to know the exact time we were expecting to take off on this trip so they could have all connections completed and ready for a round-the-world broadcast of our trip direct from us.
