In addition, the researchers created a computational model to examine theoretically the fundamental potential for data transmission with a single chip identical to the one used in the experiment.

Thales Alenia Space announce that the VERTIGO project has concluded with the successful demonstration of a high-power optical data transmission system at the Thales laboratory in Palaiseau, France.

Forward-looking: The US space agency will soon send a new, experimental laser communication technology into space that is expected to show potential data transmission rates that are 10 to 100 ...

NASA has previously tested laser communications in space, but Artemis II will be the first crewed mission to attempt such a transmission from deep space. The technology holds the promise of ...
