Space Laser Platforms

Space laser platforms refer to systems that use high-energy lasers installed in space to target specific locations on Earth or other celestial bodies. These lasers can have various applications, including satellite communication, sensing, and potentially military uses. By operating from space, these platforms can cover large areas and avoid atmospheric interference that affects ground-based lasers. The technology aims to improve precision, speed, and efficiency in applications such as data transmission and military targeting. However, the deployment of such systems raises concerns about space security and the potential for weaponization in orbit.
