Lets imagine... hypothetically [1] that we could design a new kind of space oriented machines, sort of a "spatial server" or a "telephone repeater", that could be left in Pluto (or an asteroid, or orbiting Saturn, whatever...), and be designed to take this weak signals, amplify it, and resend it to the earth

Would this help to increase the range of what discover can report and... hum, discover?

Would help us to have the info in two months instead in eight? (maybe splitting in a multipart message and broadcasting in several threads and different frequency bands at the same time or so?).

or would be basically useless?

Could be used to start a exploring outer web that would be improved with each new launching as other countries connect to it?

[1] I don't know how realistic, or technically difficult would be. Is an idea idea that just occurred to me
