This is why laser links belong in your DR plan: transcelestial.com/disaster-recov…

Most disaster recovery plans have a blind spot: they assume fiber gets fixed fast. It doesn't. Repairs take weeks when roads are blocked and crews can't reach the break. A 7.2 earthquake in Taiwan proved the alternative. CENTAURI laser links restored connectivity in under 4 hours and held 99.98% availability through the aftermath. No trenching, no permits, no crew on site.

P.S. We're at SPACETIDE Foundation through July 9, @jharohit is speaking on the optical constellations panel on July 9, 4:20 PM JST. If you're in Tokyo and thinking about optical interoperability, come find us.

Lasercomms doesn't scale in isolation. It scales when systems from different companies can talk to each other. Announced at #SPACETIDE2026 (@SpaceTide_Conf): @warpspace_inc and Transcelestial will run ground and space demos proving independently built optical systems can connect. Links below.

CENTAURI just won a "Best of Show" Award at Interop Tokyo 2026, picked from 250+ products in the Network Infrastructure category. Our laser comms system, demoed live with partner @NTTAT_PR. Fiber's everywhere in Japan, but terrain, right-of-way, and time still get in the way. CENTAURI moves up to 25Gbps over 3km. No spectrum license, install to live in hours.

Look Ma...Clouds! ☁️ Some quick thoughts here from our TMOGS platform: 1. Clouds vary in density and composition. So while it doesn't mean we can go through the densest thunderclouds through to LEO (yet!), the long held "belief" that lasers don't work through cloud is FALSE! 🎯 2. Very Strong SNR observed based on our years of IP developed with CENTAURI platform pushing through rain, haze, fog, snow. Relies on our combined APC, AEC and other self-optimizing and self-healing algorithms on control-vision pipeline 💪 3. 1550nm range rocks! 🤘 Below video is on NIR (since we had sensors in that range looking at sky), at some point we can release the SWIR video and it looks so so much cleaner and obvious what the sensors are seeing from that. 👀 4. Most importantly, Effective Connection Time ⌛ and Overall Data Transmitted ✅ is massively higher than RF even in a cloudy environment. You can see here the self-healing ability of lasercomms with an active PAT system. Diving in and out of pockets of light and dense cloud, lasercomms effective connection to a LEO results in net higher data throughput in aggregate - even in cloudy environments in Singapore! 🇸🇬 Follow me or @trans_celestial for more on space lasers! #lasercomms

Orbital compute is only worth something if you can get the data back. That's the layer we build. Check out the Bloomberg feature here: bloomberg.com/news/videos/20…

@Bloomberg came to Transcelestial’s rooftop with a question: Could data centers in space help solve AI’s capacity crunch? Our take: Orbital compute only works if you can get the data back to Earth. There are no undersea cables in space. Each satellite has to hand enormous volumes of data to the next one, and back down to Earth and radio can't carry enough of it. Light can.⚡ Laser links move far more bandwidth, and the vacuum of space strips away the weather and line-of-sight limits that challenge optical links on the ground. That's the backbone we're building: laser links between satellites, down to rooftop optical ground stations on Earth.

📌 More details on the first homes connected in 2026 here: statescoop.com/first-bead-int…

The first homes connected under the $42.5B BEAD program weren't connected by fiber. They were wireless. A farmhouse in Ogallala got 800 Mbps "in days, not years." BEAD is technology-neutral now. Cost and speed decide. Wireless just set the benchmark.

RT @jharohit: We cannot build solutions if we don't understand the problem that we are solving. @trans_celestial has been systematically…

We @trans_celestial are looking for epic sci fi artists who have bold ideas and visions of the future and would like to come work with me on some ideas. If you are new or upcoming and still unrecognized for your potential (or you know of someone, please tag here 🙏🏽 Epic world building and technology imagineering shall commence 🔥

📌 Full case study here with our laser links delivering fiber-grade connectivity: transcelestial.com/blog/when-down…

Hospitals can't go offline. Not for a day. Not even an hour. So when Asian Hospital and Medical Center in the Philippines needed a stronger backup link between two buildings, the obvious answer was "more fiber." Except it's one of the busiest hospitals in the country, and trenching through an active campus meant weeks of permits, civil works, and halted operations. A 1,000 ft fiber trench can run $100K+ once you factor in permits and surface restoration. So together with our local partner EBDI Philippines, we deployed a CENTAURI 10G laser link between the two buildings. Fiber-grade connectivity, 99.99% weekly uptime, now a permanent part of the hospital's continuity infrastructure. If you're dealing with a campus, hospital, port, or dense urban site where civil works aren't practical, that's exactly what CENTAURI is built for.

P.S. If you're an ISP, network operator, or campus connectivity team running into one of those five situations, DM us. Worth a 20-minute conversation with our team, Mark Harnen or Travis Brown.

But here's what this actually is. The failure mode for enterprise connectivity isn't capacity. It's infrastructure. One blocked permit, one $100K quote, one spectrum conflict, and a project that should take days stretches into quarters. Laser communications removes that friction. CENTAURI delivers up to 25 Gbps full-duplex, line-of-sight, live in days. No trenching. No spectrum license. No carrier dependency.

Fiber is the right answer most of the time. It's the wrong answer when: - The quote comes back at $100K+ for a 1,000-foot run - The carrier timeline is 12 to 18 months and you need it in 30 days - The right-of-way is owned by someone who won't let you trench - You're replacing a leased dark fibre line that just doubled in price Most people hear this and think: edge case.
