#Europe tests #laser links as #satellite comms outgrow radio
Greek mountaintop ground station aims infrared beams at #CubeSats in #ESA-backed optical networking trial
#PeakSat and #ERMIS3, two Greek CubeSats launched under ESA's wider Greek IOD/IOV mission, both carry #Astrolight's #ATLAS1 optical communication terminal. Astrolight also built the ground segment, giving the project a fully integrated end-to-end optical communications setup capable of data at up to 2.5Gbps.

Good news from another one of the #CubeSats sent along with #ArtemisII - Germany's #Tacheles has phoned home: https://www.tu.berlin/news/nachricht/artemis-mission-berliner-satellit-erfolgreich-im-all-ausgesetzt (in https://www.n2yo.com/satellite/?s=68539 its highly elliptical orbit),

My son will be giving a talk this weekend about student-led #cubesat projects, as part of the Expert Speaker Series to the Astronomical League of the Philippines.

He is Program Manager of the CubeCats satellite club at the University of Cincinnati.

They will be launching their first #satellite this April to the #iss aboard CRS NG-24.

On Zoom and open to the public. Saturday February 21, 8:30pm EST

🚀 Brace yourself, #Geerling is back with another love letter to Raspberry Pi 🚀. Apparently, #CubeSats are not only "fascinating" but also powered by these tiny computers, because sending real satellites to space was just too mainstream. 🤷‍♂️ Who knew that space exploration's future hinges on glorified pocket calculators? 😂
