Design and initial on-orbit testing of a commercial optical space data relay network
Kepler is deploying a commercial optical space data relay network providing real-time, high-bandwidth internet connectivity to LEO space, air, and ground users. The Kepler Network will be compatible with the SDA Optical Communications Standard, and interoperable with SDA-Standard-compatible networks such as the Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA).
