Transcelestial, a startup developing optical communications technologies, has signed an agreement with Gilmour Space Technologies to incorporate its technology on Gilmour Space spacecraft.

Transcelestial has advanced its work to provide space-to-ground optical communications with a test of laser transmissions from a satellite to ground stations.

WASHINGTON — Transcelestial has advanced its work to provide space-to-ground optical communications with a test of laser transmissions from a satellite to ground stations. The Singapore-based company announced May 12 it performed a test where ground stations in Singapore and Spain were able to detect and track laser transmissions from a satellite built by Open Cosmos and launched last year. The test is a final step before attempting to transmit data from the satellite to those optical ground stations, said Rohit Jha, co-founder and chief executive of Transcelestial, in an interview. “This is one of the hard parts of putting laser comms into space: how do you quickly acquire both sides,” he said. That is a challenge because of factors like clouds that can interrupt laser transmissions as well as light pollution in urban areas that can make it hard to identify the laser transmission from the satellite. Jha said his company uses techniques like optical filters on the ground stations’ telescopes to limit light to the frequencies the lasers are transmitting at, as well as unique blinking patterns to distinguish the laser from other sources in the sky. “Once it’s locked on both sides, are able to use closed-loop...

SAN FRANCISCO / PERTH, 20 AUGUST 2026: LatConnect 60 (LC60) has signed a commercial contract with Transcelestial for an optical communications terminal on its SWIRSAT-1 mission, plus access to Transcelestial's optical ground station network for space-to-ground data transport and ground station operations. The agreement covers a terminal designed for rates up to 10Gbps, access to a ground network with two stations live today and five to six targeted by end of 2026, and ongoing data transport and operations.

Rohit Jha, 36, is the co-founder and CEO of Transcelestial. Courtesy of Rohit Jha Rohit Jha calls himself a "huge nerd". In his early years, he developed a deep love for computers, space, and eventually science fiction. Jha spent much of his childhood and adolescence coding second-hand computer games, observing the stars through a telescope on the roof of his school, and reading the work of science fiction writer Isaac Asimov.
