Bright Solutions offers complete design, customization, and manufacturing services for clients involved in complex space missions ensuring precision, reliability, and innovation in every project, leveraging on their extensive expertise in creating highly ruggedized laser units designed for flight, alongside their experience in developing lasers for satellite instruments
Hereafter we present two Space Programs with Bright Solutions’ lasers onboard!
Blue Ghost Mission 4
Bright Solutions supplies the Laser Head Box and Laser Electronics for the Laser Ablation Ionization Mass Spectrometer (CLPS-LIMS), developed by the University of Bern, Switzerland
CLPS-LIMS will fly as part of the payload suite aboard Blue Ghost Mission 4, led by Firefly Aerospace under NASA’s Commercial Lunar Payload Services initiative. The instrument will perform in-situ chemical analysis of lunar regolith in the Moon’s south polar region.
The laser source generates <2ns pulses at 532 nm with up to 30 uJ pulse energy at 200 Hz of repetition rate The miniaturized laser has variable output power and has been provided with electronic driver and special wiring included

OSIRIS-REx
OSIRIS-REx is NASA’s historic asteroid sample-return mission to a near-Earth asteroid (called Bennu)
Launched on September 8, 2016, the spacecraft reached Bennu in December 2018 and successfully collected a sample in May 2020 after overcoming numerous challenges.
The OSIRIS-RexLaser Altimeter (OLA) includes two laser sources and a single receiver. The 10 μJ@1064 nm 10 kHz sub-ns laser was built by Concept Research Corporation (Charlotte, NC), whose technology assets have been acquired and transferred to Bright Solutions -Italy in 2015.
