    High-resolution Earth observation payloads generate large data volumes, and operators face throughput constraints when downlinking via conventional radio-frequency channels, which typically operate between 1 and 2 Gbps. Optical communications bypass these spectral limitations using narrow, interception-resistant optical beams that operate outside international radio spectrum licensing regimes. The deployment operationalizes concepts outlined by Odysseus Space on…
