On 20 January 1968, the television camera of the lunar lander successfully detected two from in and in. The Opto-Electronics section develops technology for free-space optical communication systems. Therefore, NASA is developing optical communications to address limitations of radio frequency (RF) communications, including: bandwidth, spectrum and overall size of frequency packages and power used. OCTs support vast networking of satellites, the sharing of data and information, and collective on-orbit computing resources in sp ce. The European Space Agency Council has approved the reassignment of Laurent Jaffart, currently Director of Connectivity and Secure Communications (D/CSC) to the newly created position of Director of Resilience, Navigation and Connectivity Directorate (D/RNC), which will take effect from 1 February. Unlike traditional fiber-based methods, which are often impractical or costly in remote or dynamic environments, or point-to-point.

On 20 January 1968, the television camera of the Surveyor 7 lunar lander successfully detected two argon lasers from Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona and Table Mountain Observatory in Wrightwood, California. In 1992, the Galileo probe proved successful one-way detection of laser light from Earth as two ground-based lasers were seen from 6,000,000 km (3,700,000 mi) by the ou
