Small inexpensive satellite platforms offer opportunities for pathfinder experiments, space qualification of components, and enhancement of larger assets. Upcoming CubeSat experiments are slated to demonstrate > 100 Mbps optical communications from LEO-to-ground and single-photon counting HgCdTe detector technology.
