NASA successfully tested a low-cost optical communications terminal during the Artemis II mission, using an off-the-shelf telescope and advanced photon-detection system to download data from the Moon at 260MB per second. Deployed in Australia within months, the system matched the performance of NASA's primary ground stations, suggesting that affordable laser communication networks could soon make high-definition space data transmission widely accessible.
