Lockheed Martin Lunar Laser Power Beaming System
Sector: Solar • Location: United States
Source: Tech Times
Lockheed Martin is developing a wireless power transfer system using diode-pumped fiber lasers and a space-based heat rejection subsystem. The system aims to provide power to assets in permanently shadowed lunar regions by beaming laser energy from solar arrays on illuminated crater rims to photovoltaic receivers kilometers away, eliminating the need for physical wiring across the lunar surface.
