Buying Space-qualified Lasers
Space-qualified lasers are designed to operate reliably under the harsh conditions encountered in space missions, including extreme temperatures, vibrations, vacuum, and ionizing radiation. These lasers must also operate with low power consumption and minimal interference with other onboard instruments.
