What else?

Even an Internet connection that worked anywhere on the planet would be a bit of a stretch, but one that still works such a long time after having left the Earth's atmosphere is completely ridiculous. And even some kind of "magical" communication that could reach Earth would take quite some time due to the distance, no way you'd be able to just get into a conversation with quick back-and-forth dialogue.

It's just the laws of physics.
