Fox News
NASA's next laser communications mission will launch early Sunday morning.
LCRD, a hosted payload on STPSat-6 spacecraft led by NASA's Maryland-based Goddard Space Flight Center, is part of the U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command’s Space Test Program 3 (STP-3) mission.
The mission, NASA says, will continue the agency's exploration of laser communications to support future missions to the moon and throughout the solar system and is a "giant step towards making operational laser, or optical, communications a reality."
