Nasa has simply beamed a cat video from 19 million miles away again to Earth in a brand new experiment testing the boundaries of communication between our home planet and the depths of the photo voltaic system.
The cat is named Taters and is owned by an worker of Nasa. The video showcased Taters chasing after a laser beam, and was uploaded to a spacecraft launched on the thirteenth of October. It took some time for the spacecraft to get far sufficient away for the experiment, however the outcomes present a transparent success.
Ryan Rogalin, the pinnacle of Nasa’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, appears fairly happy with the experiment. “Despite transmitting from hundreds of thousands of miles away, it was in a position to ship the video sooner than most broadband web connections,” he stated to the BBC.
Graphs from the spacecraft additionally analysed Taters’ breed, well being, and age, displaying greater than only a enjoyable video to look at from house.
