Capt Daniel Goodman roger that a good read and solid share all the way. I like the point in hand here:
" researchers continue to study the possibility of laser transponder missions to Mars, the Martian moon Phobos, or other planets. "Laser ranging over interplanetary distances using two-way laser transponders included two successful experiments in 2005 to the Messenger spacecraft (24 million km) and Mars Global Surveyor Spacecraft (80 million km)," says Degnan. "
Simply far-out and amazing! Roger that!

Not until I retired and started working for Sprint would I become involved with Laser Communications and Fiber Optics.
