SSC Space's optical ground station in Chile is ready to connect to space with lasers!
Supported by @esa.int 's Optical and quantum communications - ScyLight, this marks a concrete step towards wider laser communications.
More secure, faster and cooler 😎 communications with satellites!

Lasers aren’t just for space operas 🌠 Lasers offer secure, direct and fast links between Earth and space
Through ESA’s ScyLight programme, Airbus and TNO demonstrated secure laser communication between an aircraft and a geostationary satellite ✈️🌐

How do you shape the future of satcom in space?🤔
You gather 300+ people from 30+ countries to connect, swap ideas and co-design how optical and quantum comms will work in orbit.
Missed this year's ScyLight Conference? Here's the visual recap; maybe you'll join next year👀
