A Guinness World Record! ✅🏅
The TeraByte InfraRed Delivery (TBIRD) system designed and developed by @NASA and @MITLL achieved the fastest data connection between a satellite in orbit and a receiving station on the ground. ow.ly/L3Q150SCjL9.
Researchers from @Fermilab and @MITLL trapped ions using in-vacuum cryoelectronics, reducing thermal noise and boosting sensitivity— a breakthrough on advancing scalable quantum computers. ow.ly/l11e50YpEQC
@MITLL leads DARPA TRACTOR program testing to develop scalable, repeatable methods for converting large C codebases to memory-safe Rust, enhancing security, performance, and code quality.
Imagine a world where autonomous systems navigate complex terrains with ease and precision. Researchers at @MITLL are seeking to augment autonomous system terrain understanding with hyperspectral imaging.
DYK: In Feb 2025, @MITLL's SĀCHI sensor payload was successfully launched on Japan's QZS-6. Due to aligned interests in space security, this US–Japan partnership provides space domain awareness (SDA) sensors to be hosted on board Japanese satellites as part of the QZSS.
