“China’s Laser Internet Shatters Records – Game Over for Starlink?!”
China’s space tech just hit a new level! In this episode, we break down a stunning breakthrough by Laser Starcom—a private Chinese aerospace company—that achieved a record-breaking 400 Gbps laser communication link between two satellites in low Earth orbit. The test moved 14.4 terabytes of data in under 7 minutes, with laser precision tracking between satellites flying 640 km apart at 28,000 km/h. This is four times faster than Starlink’s system, positioning China as a serious contender in the global race for space-based internet dominance. We explore how this test was done, why it’s revolutionary, and what it means for future satellite internet, Earth observation, and even lunar missions. Could this be the beginning of a new era in orbital communication? Watch to find out!
