NASA’s laser space kitty was one of the odder and more impressive technological feats of 2023. Cat videos are certainly not new, however sending them over a distance of 19 million miles, or 31 million kilometers, is unique and quite amazing. NASA has been working on the bandwidth problem that would be faced when communicating over interplanetary distances for quite some time, as the old methods used for Voyager through to New Horizons simply won’t cut it. New Horizons had a mere 38 kbit/s at Jupiter while at Pluto’s it wasn’t even 2 kbit/s which vastly limits what can be done and how quickly, leaving out the time delay such distances cause.
