In August, Skyloom, a subsidiary of IonQ, announced that there are now 84 laser communication terminals in orbit. Space communication is beginning to shift from radio waves to light.I will write everything about the mechanism, why it is important, and…
The MoU was executed during the International Astronautical Congress (IAC) 2026 in Antalya, Türkiye, bringing together two complementary components of the optical communications chain: Astrogate’s AstroLink, the Optical Communication Terminals (OCTs) for satellites and Spacebeam’s Osong Optical Ground Station (OGS) infrastructure…
A new ground station in Chile is set to transform how we connect to satellites, using laser technology that promises faster, safer, and more reliable data transmission. The European Space Agency (ESA), Sweden’s SSC Space and France’s Safran Space cooperated…
On October 8, 2026, Lithuanian optical technology firm Astrolight, alongside the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA) and Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh), announced the successful commissioning of an end-to-end space-to-ground laser communication link. The optical link connected Astrolight’s ATLAS-1 laser…
The growing number of small satellites and large communication constellations, such as Starlink and OneWeb, makes it harder to distinguish This phenomenon, known as “CubeSat confusion,” can hinder tracking and collision avoidance. Additionally, the increasing density of orbital objects raises…
