THESE FUTURE NASA MISSIONS WILL DESTROY RADIO -HD | LASER COMMUNICATION RELAY
NASA is embarking on a series of missions that promise to revolutionize the way we communicate in space by moving away from traditional radio frequency (RF) communication to a more advanced technology: Laser communication, specifically the Laser Communication Relay Demonstration (LCRD).

Radio waves have been the standard for space communication since the advent of space travel. However, as missions take us further into space and demand more data to be sent back to Earth, RF communication is reaching its limits. It's like trying to download a movie using a dial-up connection; the bandwidth just isn't enough.

That's where laser communication comes in. By using higher-frequency light waves, specifically in the near-infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum, laser communication can transmit data up to 100 times faster than current RF systems. This technology offers a broadband-like capability to transmit high-definition (HD) video and high-volume scientific data in near-real time across vast distances in space.

LCRD is one of NASA's initiatives to test and refine this laser communication technology. It is designed to send and receive data from multiple missions and ground stations to demonstrate the operational benefits of laser communication.

This shift from radio waves to laser communication might figuratively "destroy" the radio as we know it in the context of space communication. However, it's a necessary move to handle the increasing demands of future space missions, whether they involve sending astronauts to Mars, returning to the Moon, or exploring the outer reaches of our solar system and beyond. With the potential of laser communication, NASA is ushering in a new era of space exploration and discovery.
