Ramon.Space to develop next-gen digital onboard communication processors for UK constellations
Ramon.Space has been awarded a key program to develop next-generation digital onboard processors for large-scale communication constellations. Funded by the UK Space Agency, this program promotes collaboration among UK space technology companies to drive innovation in digital payload technologies.
At the heart of this initiative is Ramon.Space's cutting-edge onboard processor, NuComm, desi High-Speed Plasmonic Modulators Could Boost Space Communication Capabilities
Researchers have successfully achieved data transmission rates of up to 424 Gbit/s across a 53-km free-space optical link using plasmonic modulators, which control optical signals through surface plasmon polaritons. This advancement paves the way for high-speed optical communication links that can transmit data through open air or space.

Billionaire steps out of SpaceX capsule for first private spacewalk hundreds of miles above Earth
A billionaire stepped out for the first private spacewalk Thursday, teaming up with SpaceX on the daring endeavor hundreds of miles above Earth.
Tech entrepreneur Jared Isaacman and his crew waited until their capsule was depressurized before popping open the hatch. Isaacman emerged first, joining a small elite group of spacewalkers who until now had included only professional astronauts from a dozen countries.
"Back at home, we all have a lot of work to do. But from here, it sure looks like a perfect world," said Isaacman.
The commercial spacewalk was the main focus of the five-day flight financed by Isaacman and Elon Musk's company, and the culmination of years of development geared toward settling Mars and other planets.
Billionaire's spacewalk with SpaceX delayed several hours hundreds of miles above Earth
A billionaire will have to wait a little longer to perform the first private spacewalk after SpaceX delayed Thursday's spacewalk by a few hours.
Tech entrepreneur Jared Isaacman and his crew began preparing for the endeavor soon after blasting into orbit on Tuesday for a five-day flight. SpaceX announced the postponement an hour ahead of the planned start of the spacewalk.
No explanation was immediately given, but the company said via X "all systems are looking good.
