Sending Video Of 'Cat' From Space To Earth: First Successful Experiment

Sending Video Of 'Cat' From Space To Earth: First Successful Experiment. A US space agency (NASA) mission recently successfully tested a state-of-the-art laser communications system, providing the first video of a 'cat' to Earth from a spacecraft some 19 million miles (31 million km) away. But it has been fixed.

According to the report of the British broadcaster BBC, a video of a cat was sent to Earth using a laser on NASA's spacecraft 'Psyche Probe'.

This is the first experiment in NASA history where a state-of-the-art laser communications system has been used to send high-definition (HD) video of a cat to Earth on a spacecraft.

A 15-second video of a cat named Taters is the first to be broadcast from deep space, as NASA hopes the new laser will improve communications with the far reaches of the solar system.

In addition, human missions to Mars will also be able to send materials to Earth using advanced lasers. In the video clip, a cat can be seen chasing a laser light on a sofa, the video also features test graphics overlays, including the trajectory of the spacecraft Psyche in orbit, the laser and its data. Technical information included.

When the video was sent, the spacecraft was 80 times the distance between Earth and the Moon, taking just 101 seconds for the laser to reach Earth.

On October 13, a video of an orange cat from Kennedy Space Center in Florida was sent into space by spacecraft using SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket.

The spacecraft later sent the video back to Earth on December 11, which was a successful experiment.

The video transmitted from deep space using laser communication technology was then received by the Hale telescope, after which it was downloaded.

"This is an amazing achievement, we all love taters," said Ryan Rogalin, head of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
