NASA’s Deep Space Optical Communications (DSOC) has just wrapped up its final data relay from the Psyche mission, achieving record speeds. This technology showcases how we can send vast amounts of information across space. Although the system has gone quiet for now, there’s a chance it may be turned back on in late 2026. This could open new doors for future space communications, making data transfer faster and more efficient than ever.
