Space experts are working on improving Moon landing videos from grainy footage to high-definition, colour, and high frame rate, overcoming challenges like bandwidth, dust, and signal delay, with advancements including lunar satellite constellations and laser communications for future missions.
NASA successfully transmitted a 15-second ultra-high definition video of a cat named Taters from nearly 19 million miles away using its Deep Space Optical Communications technology. The video was uploaded to NASA's Psyche asteroid probe and transmitted via an encoded near-infrared laser to Earth, setting a record for transmission distance. This achievement demonstrates the potential for streaming high-bandwidth video and data from deep space, which could be crucial for future human missions beyond Earth's orbit and pave the way for advancements in space exploration.
