LTP (Lunar Transport Protocol)

Lunar Transport Protocol (LTP) is a communication framework designed for reliable data transfer between Earth and lunar spacecraft. It manages the transmission of information across the vast, challenging space environment by dividing large data into smaller packets, ensuring they are correctly sent, received, and reassembled despite delays and potential disruptions. LTP is adaptable, working with various spacecraft and mission types, facilitating efficient, dependable communication essential for lunar exploration activities, scientific data transfer, and mission coordination. Essentially, it ensures that data reaches the Moon and back accurately and efficiently, despite the inherent challenges of space communication.
