Chinese satellite reportedly beats Starlink by transferring data 5x faster using a tiny laser

 05:05 24/06/2025

Chinese scientists have achieved a groundbreaking feat in satellite communication by transmitting data from 36,000 kilometers using a low-powered 2-watt laser. This innovative experiment achieved a remarkable 1 Gbps data rate, surpassing Starlink's performance. The success is attributed to AO-MDR synergy, which overcomes atmospheric distortion, potentially revolutionizing global internet infrastructure with fewer satellites in higher orbits.
