re: OK, even if I misread you:

I think you're still missing the overall point I was trying to make, but I am not
going to keep pursuing this.

One thing you did get wrong about Apollo instruments left on the Moon:

None of them are still operating except for the laser reflectors, but they are
only passive instruments. The ALSEPs of later missions were deliberately
turned off in 1977 to save a few measly bucks. The ones deployed by
Apollo 11 stopped working only a few months after the Eagle ascent stage
headed back up to Columbia.
