Traditionally radios have been used to communicate between spacecraft and the ground but they suffer from low data rates, interference, and high power draw for higher throughput. Lasers surpass them on every front as a more capable and efficient medium. There are drawbacks like higher pointing requirements and adoption of specialized equipment, but when that equipment provides further advantages, the switch becomes even more appealing. Most people think of illumination as the key value of light, but Peregrine Space is illuminating all its other potentials. Another capability of radio frequency is its ability to perform radar mapping of objects, but lidar performs in much the same way, but at higher accuracies. This pattern of improvement applies to numerous other applications that Peregrine Space has designed their devices to leverage, to the benefit of numerous key space applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video height=\"1080\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1920 \/ 1080;\" width=\"1920\" controls src=\"https:\/\/spacetimespod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/terminal_animation.mp4\"><\/video><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Animation of Shikra laser terminal showing scale to spacecraft<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First and foremost, communication, one of the most pressing topics in the space industry right now. Countless optical communication companies have been formed, launched, and acquired that it\u2019s hard to keep up with the state of the art. The two primary trends to follow are Starlink\u2019s ecosystem that\u2019s primarily been SpaceX\u2019s walled garden until recent sales of their Plaser terminals to Muon Space and Starcloud that have opened it up to third party users. The other broader standard is Space Defense Agency (SDA) compliance that\u2019s arisen from the early deployment of the technology under SDA\u2019s Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA). Tyler Ritz, CEO of Peregrine Space, addresses this duality by answering \u201c&#8230;is it SDA compliant? The answer is yes. But is it Starlink compliant? And the answer is also yes. So we have taken a stance to support entirely different modulation schemes that allow us to maximize compatibility and provide this network to our customers no matter the route.\u201d This flexibility will be critical as laser optical communication becomes even further adopted for future satellites. Already we\u2019re seeing constellations networked by laser comms like Kepler and Open Cosmos that use onboard AI to enable more robust and faster processing of data collected by spacecraft to provide near-realtime insights to their customers. Utilizing Peregrine\u2019s technology would allow these end users to be agnostic of the source of their satellite data, allowing the deployment of sensors to more quickly expand the capability of space to provide value to Earth from across multiple fleets. Peregrine has developed a cloud style distribution of their network that allows any operator to opt-in to a system that allows a satellite to interoperate, Tyler explains \u201c&#8230;we&#8217;re calling it our Flock program. So if you join the flock we&#8217;re basically sharing the data across the Flock. So if you launch 10 Corvid payloads, and let&#8217;s say another mission provider launches 10 Corvid payloads, maybe you both sign on to the flock. Which means you both agree to allow each other to pass data through those terminals, which allows us to expand our network offering and availability without having to pay for our own satellites. It also lets us buy back bandwidth from these customers and kind of mitigate the cost of these payloads.\u201d This capability will help with the current wave of deployment of AI enabled payloads, but will also be critical for the orbital data center market that\u2019s emerging. The Starminds and Starclouds using Plasers would be able to talk to the Sophia Spaces and Apex Spaces if they chose to fly Corvid payloads. Rapid communication in high volumes is critical for AI data centers as we\u2019ve seen on Earth, so solving this problem for space will be key to enabling their massive scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Corvid\u2019s design has advantages to both current and future AI trends. Their terminals are gimbleless which is an impressive technical feat that not only reduces the size, weight, power consumption, and configuration footprint, but also means there\u2019s no movement when they are providing a connection. Ian Silverberg, Founding Engineer of Peregrine, highlights the benefit of this design, \u201chistorically [connecting] means I&#8217;m moving a gimbal, I can&#8217;t be collecting data. So, we&#8217;re able to increase this company&#8217;s uptime just by saying you can get all your data out at the same time you&#8217;re collecting it. And that drives their ceiling of uptime from 30% uptime to potentially 100% uptime.\u201d Uptime is critical to just about any mission profile as it increases the amount of profit that can be generated by a sensor and subsequently decrease the time to pay off the hardware. Also important to satellites that generate data is the ability to downlink high volumes of data so that meaningful amounts of data can actually be delivered to the customer. Tyler states that Peregrine\u2019s goal is to provide \u201c40 terabits per second anywhere on Earth, and hopefully we can extend that number out as we progress and develop future technologies, as frankly, data center tech kind of becomes more and more advanced. I think that number will increase, but right now 40 terabits a second anywhere on earth and what we do differently, and what we do better.\u201d This stands out as an incredibly ambitious goal as current data rates are around 250Mb\/s with Starlink, with an anticipated increase to <em>only<\/em> 1Tb\/s with the next generation, aligned with the future Amazon Terawave constellation that\u2019s purpose built for laser optical data center connectivity. Data rates at the scale Peregrine is talking about will change the game for the space industry as a whole, as it allows orbital assets to keep up with terrestrial demands on sensing, compute, and communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"585\" src=\"https:\/\/spacetimespod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/peregrine_routing_tool-1024x585.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spacetimespod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/peregrine_routing_tool-1024x585.png 1024w, https:\/\/spacetimespod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/peregrine_routing_tool-300x171.png 300w, https:\/\/spacetimespod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/peregrine_routing_tool-768x438.png 768w, https:\/\/spacetimespod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/peregrine_routing_tool-1536x877.png 1536w, https:\/\/spacetimespod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/peregrine_routing_tool-2048x1169.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Peregrine&#8217;s software tools for planning trip times through laser network<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their technology further enables the space industry by providing infrastructural capabilites that have become critical to a contested space domain. These lasers they use to communicate can also be used to provide LIDAR scanning of objects in space, a capability commonly referred to as Space Situational Awareness (SSA). When it\u2019s referenced though, it\u2019s typically in the form of imagers detecting targets, or in some cases radar. While LIDAR is more commonly applied to self driving cars and terrestrial robotics, it has immense potential for space. The most significant opportunity is for broad area situational awareness like that signalled by the $6B USSF Andromeda contract awarded two months ago. Peregrine is able to deploy their laser sensing capabilites on thier own to provide this sort of broad coverage and detection, but they also carry a significant benefit over \u201ctraditional\u201d SSA solution which is that they can also provide ranging and timing data even in GPS denied environments. This has become of critical importance recently with the incresae in GPS jammers in conflict regions, and increasingly so in space as last month Russia was detected to be hosting jammers onboard satellites. Having the ability to continue providing geolocation data to space and Earth assets when they\u2019re being jammed has huge defense implications as has been demonstrated by programs like Vantor\u2019s Raptor. Combining their Position Navigation &amp; Timing (PNT) cabability with LIDAR highlights a third opportunity that is of critical importance, Rendezvous Proximity Operations (RPO). RPO is not only necessary for space defense application, such as being able to move to intercepting a space target that is detected by SSA systems, but also to the broader advancement of space infrastructure. Space habitats necessary for permanent human habitation, on-orbit refueling needed for interplanetary travel, and in-space manufacturing key to expanding the structures we can build in space all rely on RPO. Peregrine\u2019s technology will prove critical to space as it becomes a more contested space, providing solutions to overcome the biggest challenges that threaten on-orbit assets and their ability to reliably serve as infrastructure on orbit as well as on the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The laser hardware and software that Peregrine is building not only moves the state of art of laser communications forward, but also the state of art of space capabilities. Moving terabits of data between spacecraft and the ground will revolutionize communications, and their dual use for space awareness and geolocation will enable urgent defense applications as well as serving as a core component to the future of in-space logistics and infrastructure. They\u2019ve already qualified parts of their system to TRL-9, meaning they\u2019ve flown in space, they\u2019ve gotten interest from commercial and defense customers, and are working to further deploy their systems on-orbit to establish their network of capabilities.
