NASA's Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) Program at NASA Headquarters is pursuing a vibrant and wide-ranging optical communications program for future near-Earth missions such as the Laser Communications Relay Demonstration and the Orion Exploration Mission-2 (EM-2) lunar mission, and planetary missions such as the Deep Space Optical Communications system on the Discovery mission to the asteroid Psyche. This presentation will also address NASA's plans to infuse this new technology into NASA's existing communications networks.
