Lasers are indisputably awesome, and NASA just made them a little more so by zapping a record-breaking 622 Mb of data per second between the moon and earth as a part of its Lunar Laser Communications ...
NASA’s Lunar Laser Communication Demonstration (LLCD) experiment made history yesterday as it beamed data back to Earth from lunar orbit at previously unheard of speed for a space mission. Operating ...
This week, NASA released the results of its Lunar Laser Communication Demonstration’s (LLCD) 30-day test carried out by its Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer (LADEE) that is currently in ...
They set their phasers to "chat." NASA used laser beams to transfer data over the 239,000 miles to and from the moon at a record breaking 622 megabits per second (Mbps), the space agency just ...
Deep space can be a lonely place. But what if astronauts could beam their favourite HD videos from Earth? Or create their own 3D films for us to see? That's exactly what Nasa hopes to achieve by ...
If you thought your high-speed Internet was fast, think again. NASA has set a new speed record for data transmission in space, beaming information to and from the LADEE probe some 380,000 kilometers ...
In the early morning hours of Oct. 18, NASA's Lunar Laser Communication Demonstration (LLCD) made history, transmitting data from lunar orbit to Earth at a rate of 622 Megabits-per-second (Mbps). That ...
Orbiting high over the lunar surface is LADEE, the Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer, with a mission to probe the moon's exosphere and dust clouds. It will take readings using a number of ...
A new NASA-developed, laser-based space communication system will enable higher rates of satellite communications similar in capability to high-speed fiber optic networks on Earth. A new ...
NASA’s new Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer, or LADEE, mission, which is scheduled to be launched on Sept. 6 will attempt to show that two-way laser communication beyond Earth is ...
NASA is preparing to launch the Lunar Laser Communications Demonstration (LLCD), a testbed that will use lasers to send and receive data between Earth and the Moon. This will be the first time that ...
