Answer»

The correct ANSWER is (c) Stopped by ionizing effects

Explanation: X-rays are not stopped by ionizing effects and that was the only reason they were ever thought they could be USED in communication. In re-entry vehicles, a temporary communication cut off is EXPERIENCED due to ionizing effects. X- rays were hard to modulate and focus and hence GRADUALLY let down.
