NASA's Interstellar Cat Video Delights Earth After 19-Million-Mile Journey

NASA has successfully transmitted a high-definition video from deep space using laser communication, marking a significant milestone in deep space optical communication. The 15-second video, featuring an adorable cat named Taters chasing a laser pointer, was streamed from 19 million miles away from Earth, breaking the record for the longest distance covered by data-encoded laser beams. This demonstration showcases NASA's ability to transmit data encoded in lasers from farther distances within deep space, paving the way for improved communication in future deep space missions.
