?? Technical #Breakthrough! Aerospacelab successfully closed the link between its VSP-150 #satellite, Gregoire, and its optical ground-station (OGS) in?Louvain-la-Neuve. ?? Receiving?optical signals from our satellites?is key for?demonstrating Aerospacelab’s?free optical #space communication (FSOC) capabilities. This opens the door?to high-speed and secure data transfers from space to ground but also in-orbit. ?? ? The?team?can now prove similar links?with?its other satellites. ? Aerospacelab is one of the few companies in the world to demonstrate this capability?with both fully in-house designed optical space and ground segments. ? This milestone also showcases the agility and performance of the VSP-150 satellite platform. ? This link closure is?the first step in the development of?our FSOC technologies, enabling more features to be tested soon, both in orbit and on ground. Check out this video from our sky-wide camera picking up the satellite signal. ?? ?
very cool… I have some ideas of things to do with this ??
Super de contribuer à mettre LLN sur la carte ????
Amazing ! Congrats Beno?t Deper & team
Mass manufacturing satellites
7 个月We have a few space to ground OCTs in space, designed and built in house, of course ??
