How Space Data Centers Send Data | Laser Links, Latency, and the Real Use Cases #SpaceDataCenters

"A data center in orbit is only useful if it can move data efficiently.

Traditional RF links can be jammed, intercepted, and bottlenecked. Laser communications are faster, harder to intercept, and offer much more bandwidth. NASA demonstrated 200 Gbps laser communications, and Google’s Project Suncatcher targets terabits per second between satellites.

But lasers are not magic. Clouds block ground links, beam alignment is extremely difficult at orbital speed, and global ground infrastructure is expensive. That is why the near-term use cases are not Netflix-style streaming. They are more likely to be Earth observation, military data, scientific processing, and other latency-tolerant AI workloads.
