2023 was a big year for laser communications at #NASA! It saw the first bi-directional laser communications relay with the #ISS performed by the #LCRD mission (at over 1 Gbps), a 267 Mbps downlink from deep space (19 million miles away) by the #DSOC mission, and 200 Gbps throughput on a laser link with a LEO orbiting spacecraft by the #TBIRD mission.

📆 December 19, 2023 #Caturday at #NASA - they streamed a #cat 🐈 video from #DeepSpace using a #laser.
“Despite transmitting from millions of miles away, it was able to send the video faster than most broadband internet connections” https://edition.cnn.com/2023/12/18/world/nasa-space-laser-cat-video-scn/index.html

#DSOC

On 📆 Dec. 4, the mission turned on #Psyche’s twin cameras 📷 and retrieved the first images – a milestone called “first light.” "In 📆 2026 we’ll take test images of #Mars 🔴 during the #spacecraft’s flyby" https://www.nasa.gov/missions/psyche-mission/nasas-psyche-delivers-first-images-and-other-data/

#NASA #DSOC

#Psyche sees first light!

Although still far from its 2029 encounter with the asteroid, the spacecraft opened its eyes (twin cameras) and captured a total of 68 images, all within a star field in the constellation Pisces.

The spacecraft has already set a record by using a laser beam to communicate with Earth in an experiment called Deep Space Optical Communications (#DSOC).

#NASA Set To Test #Space #Laser Comms At 240 Million Km With #Psyche #Asteroid
Mission
NASA will test a brand new #communications system with the Psyche mission, aiming to improve data transfer speeds significantly. This is part of NASA's #DeepSpace Optical Communications (#DSOC) test, which will place a transceiver equipped with a laser transmitter and a camera to send lasers to Earth and also receive laser communications from the home planet.

#NASA 📆 July 12, 2023 #DSS23 started in 📆 February 2021 at the Goldstone, #California, #DSN Complex (with #OpticalCommunication
capabilities, which will be critical to communicate with #astronauts 👨‍🚀👩‍🚀 traveling to #Mars 🔴). NASA cannot use #RadioFrequency communications to carry higher data rates like those required for Mars without increasing
the size of its antennas 📡 or power of its radio transmitters. Therefore, the Agency is developing #optical communications (use
of light as a means of transmitting information through #lasers) https://oig.nasa.gov/docs/IG-23-016.pdf

The Deep Space Optical Communications (#DSOC) experiment will head off into the void with #Psyche, an #asteroid-chasing probe that is scheduled to blast off on October 5. While they journey toward #16Psyche, a metal-rich asteroid, the DSOC system will spend two years attempting to communicate via laser with two ground stations in Southern California.
