Quantum Communication Networks: Securing Mars-Earth Data Links

When the first Martian colonists send a message back to Earth, they’ll face a challenge that goes far beyond the 20-minute communication delay. In an era where data is the lifeblood of space exploration—from telemetry and scientific discoveries to financial transactions and personal communications—the security of that data becomes paramount. Enter quantum communication: a technology…
