  4. @danyork Unrelated to LEO satellite internet clusters: are you aware of any work being done to secure long-distance space-based transmissions / internet?

    Anything beyond a few hundred milliseconds round-trip starts getting really slow with handshakes and assured protocols. That includes TCP, but also pretty much all secure (TLS, SSL, SSH, S/MIME) protocols in which keys and secrets are exchanged. That might be viable for non-realtime transmissions to a few light-minutes out, but even interplanetary comms to near neigbours (Mars, Venus) at closest approach are likely nonviable, let alone the out planets, or Mars/Venus at distance or opposition.

    (Managing round-the-Sun links will also prove ... interesting.)

    I've done some casual digging but have found nothing as yet.

    I'm assuming a periodic key update / assertion and/or one-time password / one-time pad mechanism might be required.
