Now Space Lasers will be used in Artemis 2 Communications
Astronauts of Artemis 2 will test out the laser communications around the moon to allow faster audio, video, and image transmission. In November 2024, NASA's towering space launch system will launch a rocket and Artemis 2 mission will carry four astronauts and a cutting-edge communications device as vital as the craft's life support systems.?
The increase in the use of laser communication technologies reveals the uplifting market and its future. According to a report by Astute Analytica , the global laser communication market will register a #cagr of 24.2% during the forecast period from 2022-2030.?
For more than a decade now, the space agency has worked hard and developed a new method of communication, which is based on infrared lasers. This communication technology will replace its old, bulky radio systems, which transmit at a fraction of the rate. Once it reaches space, the Orion Artemis 2 optical communication system will serve as the crew's main link to NASA's mission control center in Houston.?
Artemis will not land on the moon's surface as the Orion spacecraft is capable of atmospheric reentry and splashdown on an Earthly Ocean, but not touchdown on solid land. The spacecraft will fly around the moon, reaching 40,000 miles away from it, while beaming gigabytes of moon footage back to the Earth. The O2O can transmit the equivalent of about 30 streaming HD movies at a time.?
The idea is to have high-definition video transmissions to and from the Moon over laser links," says NASA Project Manager Steven Horowitz in a press release. "If you recall the images from the Apollo mission, they were grainy and difficult to see, but O2O will allow Artemis astronauts to send videos and images significantly more vivid and detailed."?
