    Power transmission, so hot right now? I’ve now seen companies working on power transmission from

    Earth orbit to orbit

    Earth orbit to surface

    Lunar orbit to surface

    Lunar surface to surface

    It’s been a while since we’ve had any spacecraft on the moon but maybe they’re thinking ahead.

    Lunar power in the headline drew me in. I thought - I need lunar panels now?

      What do you mean? Just in the past year-and-a-bit, we’ve had Chandrayaan-3, SLIM, Nova-C, and Chang’e 6.

        Oh, those spacecraft. I must have lost touch with space.

        Thanks for the Google fodder.
